Assessment of the Capability of the NGDS Prototype to Replace the JBAIDS for Environmental Sample Analysis

Abstract

This report summarizes the findings, lessons learned, and recommendations that were documented during the Joint U.S. Forces Korea Portal and Integrated Threat (JUPITR) Advanced Technology Demonstration (ATD) support of the U.S. Air Force (USAF) exercise, Beverly Midnight 14-03. This exercise was conducted the week of 21 July 2014 at Osan Air Base, South Korea. During the exercise, members of the JUPITR ATD supported the USAF evaluation of the BioFire FilmArray system. The USAF goal was to determine if the fielded Joint Biological Agent Identification and Diagnostic System for environmental sample analysis could be replaced by the FilmArray system.
