Body Armor & Integrated Headborne Advanced Tech
Abstract
This Project matures and demonstrates body armor weight reductions and improves the performance of personal protection and survivability equipment. It also demonstrates combat helmet ballistic, blast, and small arms protection performance enhancements and the integration and optimization of power, energy, and digital sensor and display headborne technologies. This Project supports Force Protection capability demonstrations for Soldiers and Small Units and demonstrated technologies from this effort transition to various Program Executive Office (PEO) Soldier programs. This Project complements work done in Program Element (PE) 0602143A (Soldier Lethality Technology) / AZ2 (Body Armor & Integrated Headborne Technology). The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Research in this Project is performed by the United States Army Futures Command (AFC).
