Physical Security Equipment

Abstract

This program is a budget activity level 5 based on the engineering and manufacturing development activities ongoing within the program. The purpose of this program is to develop, demonstrate, and test physical security equipment (PSE) systems, to include Force Protection. This program supports the protection of tactical, fixed, and nuclear weapons systems, AF personnel and AF facilities. The PSE program is organized to provide PSE RDT&E for Air Force specific needs but as a complement to and in conjunction with the PSE RDT&E programs funded by the DOD Physical Security Equipment Action Group (PSEAG). As such this program will develop, demonstrate, and test PSE in the same manner and to the same standards and architecture as PSEAG funded projects to ensure interoperability with PSEAG developed PSE. The program element also supports the identification and redesign of developmental, non-developmental, and commercial-off-the-shelf equipment to meet physical security requirements. Activities within this program will seek to reduce risk associated with integrating, fielding, and supporting the equipment once it becomes part of the overall security system. Two key means of accomplishing this mission will be through the support and conduct of PSE demonstrations and validating RF frequency and communication security (cyber) solutions. This program supports the maintenance and test support at Site C-3 and the Cold Weather Test Site (CWTS), as annotated in DoD Directive 3200.11, listing the 46TW as a Major Range and Test facility, conducting developmental and operational testing as the primary mission.
