Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD)

Abstract

The Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) line supports test and evaluation efforts for overall chemical, radiological, and biological detection and protection for the warfighter for multiple programs of record, including the Advanced Radiological, Nuclear Detection Family of Systems (ARND FoS) and the Chemically Protected Deployable Medical System (CP DEPMEDS). The ARND FoS will provide an enhanced standoff, " wide area/networked" detection capability to produce a radiological nuclear site picture depicting radiological hot spots and facilitating the detection of high priority areas of "interest/focus" on an objective. In FY25, ARND FoS will award initial contracts for test articles and "plan/conduct" test events. The CP DEPMEDS program procures equipment to provide chemical and biological protection to US Army Role 3 field hospitals. CP DEPMEDS RDTE BA5 funding discontinues after FY24 to transition to procurement. FY25 Base amount of $7.830 million supports ARND FoS.
