Abstract
The Family of Combat Equipment Support and Services provides research, development, test and evaluation on low cost items with emphasis on non-developmental/commercially available items. Much of the RDT&E is conducted in coordination/concert with other services and joining organizations, and in consideration of RDT&E efforts being pursued by the other services. Items approved for procurement will transition into Procurement Marine Corps and Operation and Maintenance Marine Corps lines for Individual Combat Equipment, Medical Equipment and Shelters. The focus is to provide state of the art combat equipment (e.g. lightweight helmet, sleeping bags, load bearing systems, etc.), medical equipment (e.g. Authorized Medical Allowance (AMAL)/Authorized Dental Allowance (ADAL), Enroute Care, Mobile Medical Monitors, etc.), and Family of Shelters (softwall, different frames and fabrics, etc.). The benefit will be reduced logistics, less weight, improved combat effectiveness, better echelon I and II care for Marines, improved individual and unit protection, tactical mobility, etc. The employment of state-of-the art equipment will ensure Marines are equipped with the best items that technology can offer.
