Soldier Centric Advanced Technology

Abstract

This Project will demonstrate optimized Warfighting function (e.g. shoot, move, perceive, decide, and communicate) with technologies, systems and/or subsystems designed to augment Soldier ability during missions. This Project capitalizes on operational partnerships by providing Science and Engineering subject matter experts (SMEs) the ability to assist Commanders in course of action development for potential near term solutions and condition setting for mid/far term science objectives. Provides Soldier touch points to optimize, improve performance, validate and integrate technologies and methodologies with users. Research focuses on the Warfighter as the capability and will rapidly iterate user driven solutions that maximize their tactical performance. This PE is fully coordinated across PE 0602143A and PE 0603118A in the human sciences, as well as work conducted by Medical Research & Materiel Command (MRMC), Army Research Institute (ARI), U.S. Military Academy (USMA), and other academic and industry partners. This work is in partnership with Forces Command (FORSCOM) operational units and the appropriate Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) organizations as well as established transition partners, including Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) & Program Executive Office- Soldier (PEO-S). Work in this Project complements and is fully coordinated with Military Research and Materiel Command under the Military Operational Medicine Research Program as well as Defense Medical Research and Development Program under Military Operational Medicine (JPC-5). This project also complements and is fully coordinated with work performed across Army, Navy, and Air Force under the Reliance 21 Human Systems Community of Interest: Systems Interfaces & Cognitive Processes and Protection, Sustainment, and Warfighter Performance. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. FY 2020 realignments are due to financial restructuring in support of Army Modernization Priorities. Work in this Project is performed by the U.S. Army Futures Command (AFC).
