Counter Improvised-Threat Simulation

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) develops technology for detecting and defeating Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs). The goal of this research is to increase the ability of deployed forces to positively identify IEDs with minimal false alarms and positively neutralize or mitigate the effects of IEDs with minimal collateral damage. This PE is executed by the Army Futures Command (AFC) in coordination with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (USD/R&E) and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA). Work in this PE was previously conducted under PE 0603134BR, Counter Improvised Threat Simulation.
