Soldier Systems - Warrior Dem/Val
Abstract
A portion of this funding line is a key enabler of the Army Modernization Priorities in support of the Small Unit Power (SUP) program. This program element contains four active projects: Project EY2 - Integrated Soldier Power Data System - Core: Supports development of the Integrated Soldier Power and Data Hub, Conformal Wearable Battery (CWB), Soldier and Squad Power Generation, platform power scavenging on the move, and Squad Power Manager (SPM). These capabilities fill the power and energy requirements for critical Integrated Tactical Network Soldier worn systems to include tactical leader radios, Nett Warrior, and the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS). These capabilities are critical enablers in closing the power and energy gaps created by the increase in mission essential, Soldier portable power consumers, GPS systems, weapon sensors, radios, night vision systems, and other devices. Project EY4 - Universal Battery Charger (UBC): Supports development of the UBC and Bulk Charger (BC). These capabilities fill the power and energy requirements for critical Integrated Tactical Network Soldier worn systems to include tactical leader radios, Nett Warrior, and the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS). These capabilities are critical enablers in closing the power and energy gaps created by the increase in mission essential, Soldier portable power consumers, GPS systems, weapon sensors, radios, night vision systems and other devices by providing multiple charging solutions capable of providing power to handheld communication devices and military issued batteries. Project FK4 - Soldier Borne Sensor (SBS): The SBS is a small unmanned aerial vehicle. The SBS provides a near term solution to three Army War-fighting Challenges at the Infantry Squad level: develop situational understanding, conduct air-ground reconnaissance, and conduct joint combined arms maneuver. The system is simple to deploy and use to support the squad leader's decision-making process. The system allows Soldiers to obtain local situational awareness and understanding of their immediate surroundings while remaining in covered or concealed positions. The SBS program will be procured through multiple phases. We will use the funding in this project to develop, integrate, and qualify additional capabilities for each phase. Funding in this project aligns with the Army's priorities in support of the National Defense Strategy. S65 - Soldier Power: Soldier Power enables dismounted Soldiers to efficiently execute missions for longer durations by reducing the logistical burden associated with fuel and primary (disposable) batteries. Platoon Power Generation (PPG) - PM E2S2: This project supports the demonstration and development of a PPG. The Small Unit Power (SUP) PPG will provide small units with sufficient portable power to sustain Modified Table of Organizational Equipment (MTOE) unit power demand in support of 48 to 72 hour missions. It will be used for charging batteries and powering various types of Army communications and electronics devices.
