Soldier Advanced Technology

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) matures, optimizes, and validates applied research technologies to demonstrate improved capabilities and systems that advance Soldier and Squad lethality-overmatch and Soldier performance beyond those technologies planned within the Soldier Lethality Cross-Functional Team. Advanced technology research efforts focus on the maturation and integration of broad capabilities and systems that span a range of technical areas to address enduring Soldier needs. These efforts transition outputs to existing and emerging systems in support of continuing enhancement of Soldier capabilities. This PE will fund civilian salaries for in-house researchers/scientists and program managers collaborating with external subject matter experts in academia and industry who are leaders in these technology research areas. The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Research in this Project is performed by the United States (US) Army Futures Command (AFC).
