Combating Terrorism Technology Support

Abstract

The Combating Terrorism Technical Support (CTTS) program develops and delivers capabilities that address needs and requirements with direct operational application in the national effort to combat terrorism. Projects are distributed among 9 mission categories: Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Countermeasures; Explosives Detection; Improvised Device Defeat; Investigative Support and Forensics; Personnel Protection, Physical Security; Surveillance, Collection, and Operations Support; Tactical Operations Support; and Training Technology Development. This program is a diverse, advanced technology development effort that capitalizes on interagency and international participation to demonstrate the utility or effectiveness of technology when applied to combating terrorism requirements. It includes technology capability development, proof-of-principle demonstrations in field applications, and coordination to transition from development to operational use.
