Infantry Support Weapons
Abstract
Fiscal Year (FY) 2019 budget request funds Infantry Support Weapons. This Program Element (PE) Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) manages the Soldier as a system, with the goal of increasing Soldiers' combat effectiveness, increasing survivability, and improving the Soldiers' quality of life. It develops and tests prototypes of weapons, clothing, equipment, and other items useful to support the Soldier. Project CF3 (Integrated Soldier Systems (SL CFT)) supports the Adaptive Soldier Architecture (ASA) effort that will develop a full system architecture for the Soldier and the Squad. The focus will be full integration of all mission-specific equipment into the ASA as well as full configuration management of the Configuration Database, Architecture Assessment Tool and Squad Performance Model. Project ES9 (Advanced Tactical Parachute System) supports efforts to improve Static Line (SL) and Military Free Fall (MFF) personnel parachutes and associated equipment to include canopy improvements based on integration of new technology with the goal of enhancing the insertion capability of the airborne soldier and increasing the performance, safety and durability of personnel airdrop equipment. Project EW4 (Crew Served Weapons Engineering) supports efforts to transition components or prototypes from Small Arms Improvement, Project S54, Program Element 0603827A, (Budget Activity 4) and other domestic and foreign sources of small arms weapons to demonstrate, test and evaluate capability near or at planned operational requirements. Project FF2 (Small Arms Fire Control (SAFC)) supports optimized fire control devices to support Squad (S), Crew Served (CS) and Precision (P). SAFC shall increase the probability of hit and decrease time to engage across a range of small arms weapon systems, with a direct-view optic that allows for quicker and more accurate target detection and recognition. Project FI2 (Lightweight 30mm Cannon) provides increased lethality modification to Product Directorate Counter-Rocket Artillery Mortars (PD C-RAM) under a JUONS. An upgraded medium caliber weapon will be developed, tested and evaluated for integration into a modified remote weapon station under an Urgent Materiel Release (UMR). Project S58 (Soldier Enhancement Program) supports accelerated integration, modernization, and enhancement efforts of lighter, more lethal weapons, and improved Soldier items including lighter, more comfortable load-bearing equipment, field gear, survivability items, communications equipment, and navigational aids. Project S60 (Clothing and Equipment) supports pre-production development of state-of-the-art individual clothing and equipment to improve the survivability, mobility and sustainment affecting the quality of life of the individual Soldier. Project S61 (Aircrew Integrated Systems) provides System Development programs with improved aviator safety, survivability, and human performance that amplify the warfighting effectiveness and facilitates full-spectrum dominance of the Army aircraft including the AH-64 Apache/Longbow, CH-47 Chinook, UH/HH-60 Blackhawk, Light Utility Helicopter, and Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter. Project S62 (Counter-Defilade Target Engagement) the XM25, Individual Airburst Weapon System (IAWS) delivers a 25mm programmable high explosive airburst (HEAB) round to defeat defilade and point area targets out to approximately 600 meters. Accurate and lethal engagement of defilade targets at the squad level is the number one capability gap identified by the United States Army Infantry Center (USAIC). Project S63 (Small Arms Improvements) demonstrates engineering development models or integrated commercial items designed to enhance lethality, target acquisition, fire control, training effectiveness, and reliability for small arms weapon systems and ammunition. Programs include Improved Weapons Coatings, Personal Defense Weapon, 30 Round 5.56mm Magazine, Modular Handgun System (MHS), Precision Sniper Rifle (PSR), Sub Compact, and Interim Combat Service Rifle (ICR). Project S64 (CROWS) continues enhancing CROWS capability and reliability to increase its application across combat and tactical platforms. This capability enhances the Soldier's survivability, lethality and situational awareness. Project S70 (Personnel Recovery Support System) provides system research, development and testing of the Personal Recovery Support System/Personnel Recovery Support Equipment supporting operations to report and locate isolated, missing, detained or captured Soldiers. Project VS5 (Soldier Protective Equipment) supports engineering and manufacturing development of Individual Soldier Ballistic Protection equipment. It will leverage advancements in technology to continue incremental improvements to body armor (to include improved outer tactical vests, plate carriers, and helmets) and other personal protective equipment.
