Soldier/Small Unit Ballistic and Blast Protection
Abstract
Beginning in FY15, ballistic and blast efforts previously performed under Soldier/Small Unit Integrated Protection will be captured within this effort. Soldier/Small Unit Ballistic and Blast Protection utilizes a cross-disciplinary, human-centric approach to mature and demonstrate technologies which optimize tradeoffs in ballistic and blast protective component design. This effort focuses on maturing and demonstrating proven components, which are integrated into experimental ensembles or prototypes that have potential to significantly increase protection for individual Soldiers and/or reduce physical load at equal or better capability. This work is fully coordinated with PE 0602786A/Project H98, PE 0602716A/Project H70, and PE 0602705A/Project H94. Demonstrated technologies will transition to various PEO-Soldier Product Managers. This effort supports Force Protection capability demonstrations for Soldiers and Small Units.
