CHEMICAL/BIOLOGICAL DEFENSE (RDT&E MGT SUPPORT)

Abstract

The projects in this program element (PE) support Joint Doctrine and Training, sustains the technical test capability at West Desert Test Center (WDTC), sustains the core Department of Defense (DoD) Chemical Biological (CB) Science and Technology (S&T) laboratory infrastructure, provides for program and financial management support, and supports the Joint Concepts, Studies, and Analysis program. Individual projects include: - Joint Doctrine and Training Support (DT6): develops Joint Doctrine and Multi-Service Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) for CB defense programs of record; develops non-materiel solutions for the CWMD/CBRN defense community; and supports Combatant Command training and exercises and leader development. - Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB) (DW6): operating support to WDTC and BioTesting Division (Chemical Biological Center) for the required institutional test operating costs (e.g. institutional civilian and contractor labor; repair and maintenance of test instrumentation, equipment, and facilities; and replacement of test equipment). - Laboratory Support (LS6): operating support for sustainment and modernization efforts for surety laboratory infrastructure in order to maintain and enhance DoD infrastructure capabilities to counter an expanding threat space, exploit advances in technology; and develop and transition CB defense equipment and countermeasures to the Warfighter. - Management Support (MS6): management support for the DoD Chemical Biological Defense Program (CBDP) to allow program overview and integration of overall medical and non-medical programs by the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological Defense Programs (ASD(NCB)), through the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Chemical Biological Defense (DASD(CBD)). - Joint Concept Development (O49): conducts foundational Joint Concepts development, studies and analyses to enable requirements and capabilities development of both medical and physical CBRN defense systems; coordinates WMD/CBRN threat information requirements; and conducts integrated CBRN risk assessments.
