Mun Survivability & Log

Abstract

This Project supports the future force by making Army units more survivable through the investigation, testing, and demonstration of munitions logistics system improvements that prevent or minimize catastrophic explosive events and accelerate ammunition resupply. Key thrusts are munitions storage area survivability, Insensitive Munitions (IM) technology integration and compliance, ammunition management and asset visibility, weapon system rearm, munitions configured load enablers, and advanced packaging and distribution system enhancements. Within each thrust, a broad array of solutions will be identified, tested, and evaluated against developed system wide measures of effectiveness. Optimum, cost effective, and efficient solutions that enable the rapid projection of lethal and survivable forces will be demonstrated. Theater ammunition storage areas are vulnerable especially during early stages of force deployment and present the enemy with lucrative targets. These areas and distribution nodes contain the only available munitions stocks in theater. Loss of these munition stocks could cripple the force, jeopardize the mission, and result in high loss of life. This Project mitigates vulnerabilities and ensures a survivable fighting force while providing leap ahead technology to meet the Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) and the priorities identified by the Contested Logistics, Long Range Precision Fires (LRPF), Next Generation Combat Vehicles (NGCV), Future Vertical Lift (FVL), Network, and Soldier Lethality (SL) Cross Functional Teams (CFT).
