Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD)
Abstract
The Man-Portable Radiological Detection System (MRDS) capability will provide increased radiological and nuclear (RN) detection, localization, presumptive identification and field-confirmatory identification capabilities that are networked to provide situational awareness at the tactical level. The MRDS will support Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) Interdiction and Elimination operations, specifically RN Sensitive Site Assessments and Sensitive Site Exploitation. The MRDS program will replace low density legacy COTS equipment while providing new equipment to much of the Chemical Biological RN (CBRN) force. The Joint Personal Dosimeter (JPD-I) is intended to replace Army's legacy dosimeters (Army's PDR-75A reader with the DT-236 watch). The JPD-I will provide a sensor to record and retrieve a Service member's radiation exposure from occupational to tactical levels. Future capability may also support Reconnaissance and Surveillance across the full range of CWMD operations. This capability supports Radiological and Nuclear Interdiction (RNI) and Weapons of Mass Destruction - Elimination (WMD-E) operations to: systematically locate, secure, characterize, and disable WMD programs and related capabilities.
