2009QRF0023_Minimally Manned Force Protection (M2FP)
Abstract
This effort provided enhanced force protection for small teams and expeditionary units working in contested areas and reduced the number of personnel required for monitoring surrounding area allowing them to focus on mission responsibilities. USSOCOM has the requirement to protect minimally manned base camps during contingency operations in remote contested areas. This system has the ability to network, integrate and manage various sensor systems including the SPIDER EO/IR camera detection system, the DRS Squire Radar, and several unattended ground sensors. This is accomplished through a universal translator, allowing a single operator to manage all the different sensors and alert devices. The system can be locally or remotely monitored, and has the potential to trigger text messages when required.
