ADVANCED TANK ARMAMENT SYSTEM (ATAS)

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) supports the development of the Stryker Family of vehicles (FOV) in three separate projects: The Interim Amored Vehicle Project (C03) supports the use of the common platform/common chassis design reducing requirements for repair parts and logistics support in the area of operations. Funding in this project will continue to address Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO), survivability, Operational Needs Statements (ONS) issues, and integrating Targeting Under Armor (TUA) for the Stryker Fire Support Vehicle (FSV). Stryker Modernization Project (C51) will enable the Stryker FOV (to include DVH) to host the future network without further degrading vehicle performance. The upgrade will increase available electrical power while ensuring adequate mechanical power, weight margin, and cooling. Combined with a digital backbone, this will ensure the FOV can host the future network while retaining its protection and mobility. Stryker Double V Hull (DVH) Project (VT2) was established in FY 10. The DVH design is in response to a G-3 directed requirement for survivability enhancements on Stryker vehicles used in Operation Enduring Freedom to provide a total integrated solution of increased protection and survivability against Improvised Explosive Devices (IED). DVH will be fielded as Theater Provided Equipment (TPE) and support deployments of Stryker Brigade Combat Teams (SBCT's) to Afghanistan.
