Physical Security Equipment

Abstract

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 Enterprise and Analysis 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 (COTS) 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 and evaluation and testing of COTS equipment. 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. This program is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD), because it has passed Milestone B approval and is conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full-rate production.
