Hostile Fire & Pre-Shot Detection for Vehicle Protection Systems (Army)
Abstract
This project comparatively tests technologies to autonomously detect and locate incoming hostile fire as well as potential threats before a shot is fired. These technologies will increase situational awareness and reduce response times leading to increased lethality and survivability for ground forces, especially in urban environments. If successful, this technology will transition to the Army’s Program Manager for Vehicle Protection Systems for initial fielding in 2022. Systems received and initial testing, bench testing and safety certification of components occurred in 2Q-4Q FY 2019. This project continues in FY 2020 with FY 2020 funds.
