Congressional Adds
Abstract
Congressional Add funding for the Integrated Helmet System (IHS) provides research and development focused on ballistic and blunt impact protection, allows the Marine Corps to expand the scope of test and evaluation, and provides statistically significant data in support of the business case analysis and refinement of program requirements. The major focus area of this additional funding is to purchase additional helmets from each vendor to expand the sample size of the test and evaluation to assess durability, sustainability, and maintainability of the helmets through field exercises and training events at the infantry battalions. This increase in scope enables evaluation of integration with existing communications systems on vehicle platforms, hearing enhancement device integration, performance in various environments, and integration with associated equipment and tactics.
