Combat Vehicle and Automotive Technology

Abstract

This program element (PE) researches and develops automotive technologies that enable Army transformation. The PE supports the research and development of components and subsystems for ground combat/tactical vehicles in the areas of survivability (project C05), advanced automotive technology (project H77), and tank and automotive technology (project H91). Projects T26 and T31 fund congressional special interest items. Work in this PE is related to, and fully coordinated with, PE 0603005A (Combat Vehicle and Automotive Advanced Technology), PE 0602618A (Ballistics Technology, Robotics Technology, PE 0602105A (Materials Technology), PE 0602716A (Human Factors Engineering Technology), PE 0602705A (Electronics and Electronic Devices), and PE 0708045A (Manufacturing Technology). Work in this PE is coordinated with the U.S. Marine Corps, the Naval Surface Warfare Center, and other ground vehicle developers within the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the Departments of Energy, Commerce, and Transportation. The cited work is consistent with the Director, Defense Research and Engineering Strategic Plan, the Army Modernization Strategy, and the Army Science and Technology Master Plan. Work in this PE is performed by the Tank Automotive Research, Development, and Engineering Center (TARDEC), Warren, MI.
