MANEUVER
Abstract
The Maneuver Thrust Technology Area focuses on the development, demonstration, and transition of technologies that will increase the warfighting capabilities and effectiveness of current and future Marine Corps maneuver systems. This Thrust aims at capturing emerging and "leap ahead" technologies in the areas of mobility, materials, propulsion, survivability, durability, signature reduction, modularity, and unmanned systems. The emphasis is on enhancing capabilities for manned and unmanned ground platforms in support of Marine Corps expeditionary warfare objectives including: Expeditionary Force-21, Operational Maneuver from the Sea, Ship to Objective Maneuver, SeaBasing, and sustained operations ashore. The FY 2015 to FY 2016 increase in the Maneuver Thrust Activity is due to increased cost associated with development of a vehicle demonstrator that focuses on enhanced crew survivability.
