JT Service Explosive Ordn Dev

Abstract

This is a Joint Service Program. This program provides for the development of Explosive Ordnance Disposal tools and equipment for use by all military services. The responsibility is assigned to the Navy as single service manager,by Department of Defense Directive 5160.62 of 26 April 1989, for management of the Joint Service Explosive Ordnance Disposal Research and Development Program. Proliferation of sophisticated types of foreign and domestic ordnance and Improvised Explosive Devices necessitate a continuing development program to provide Explosive Ordnance Disposal personnel of all military services with the special equipment and tools required to support this mission. This program also provides life support related equipment necessary to support the performance of Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal tasks underwater. This equipment must have inherently low acoustic and magnetic signatures in order to allow the Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician to safely approach, render-safe and dispose of sea mines and other underwater ordnance. This program also provides for the research and development of Electronic Warfare (EW) systems, equipment, procedures, and tactical aids for all military services against the threat posed by Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Devices (RCIEDs) and to prevent initiation of RCIEDs across the spectrum of Joint military operations. Utilize Joint requirements to provide a system of systems approach for a suite of equipment for mounted, dismounted, and fixed site operations; provide a Joint Counter RCIED EW (CREW) development of equipment, procedures, and tactical aids to make rapid improvements to performance, supportability and affordability, while maintaining pace with evolving global threat.
