Obscuration Advanced Technology

Abstract

The Project matures and demonstrates obscurant technologies with potential to enhance personnel and platform survivability by degrading threat force surveillance sensors and defeating the enemy's target acquisition devices, missile guidance, and directed energy weapons. Dissemination systems for new and improved obscurants are developed with the goal of providing efficient and safe screening of deployed forces. Synthetic Biology Manufacturing technologies in this project will provide Department of Defense (DoD) with the ability to manufacture products such as explosive alternatives and defense-only critical chemicals & materials. The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project is related to and fully coordinated with Program Element (PE) 0602145A (Next Generation Combat Vehicle Technology). Work in this Project performed by the Chemical and Biological Center (CBC).
