Joint Service Combat Feeding Technical Demonstration
Abstract
Beginning in Fiscal Year (FY) 2016, Joint Combat Feeding Equipment and Food Protection Technology Demonstration and Ration Stabilization and Nutrient Delivery Technology Demonstration will be combined and renamed to Joint Service Combat Feeding Technical Demonstration. This effort matures and demonstrates novel nutritional biochemistry, food processing, and packaging technologies to enhance nutrition, improve food stabilization, and optimize ration packaging to support Warfighter physical and cognitive performance on the battlefield. This effort will demonstrate technologies in support of DoD VSA to improve field detection and identification capabilities of chemical and biological threats in foods. This effort provides new threat detection tools and sensors for food inspectors. This effort also demonstrates equipment and energy technologies to expand the capability and reduce the logistics footprint of field feeding systems. This work further evolves breakthroughs from PE 0602786A/Project H99 and is coordinated with PE 0602787A/Project 869.
