Airfield Protection - New Start

Abstract

This effort advances and transitions various solutions for protecting airfield infrastructure (not associated with airfield surfaces) from penetrating threats, whether ballistic and guided. Included within this effort are structural solutions, expeditionary and expedient hardening and protection solutions, rapid restoration of fuels distribution and storage, hardening criteria, implementation costs, and updated Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs). Airfield infrastructure includes buildings, hangars, aircraft and ground equipment, fuels distribution and storage, as well as all other assets on or near airfields. This effort is designed to advance solutions developed under the Hardened Installation Protection for Persistent Operations (HIPPO) Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) and transition for implementation at fixed and expeditionary locations, providing improved resiliency and rapid restoration of airbase and airfield operations following an attack.
