Sensor Protection Advanced Technology
Abstract
This Project matures and demonstrates novel sensor protection capabilities which dramatically reduce the susceptibility of our thermal electro-optic/infrared (EO/IR) sensors to ever increasing threats on the battlefield. This effort enables continuation of the mission despite potential threat laser engagements. Low cost modular solutions will be demonstrated that can be applied across current and planned EO/IR targeting, surveillance, and situational awareness sensor systems against existing and emerging threats in support of combined arms maneuver. Work in this Project supports the Army Modernization Priority Next Generation Combat Vehicle, Soldier Lethality, and Future Vertical Lift modernization priorities. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. All FY 2020 adjustments align program financial structure to Army Modernization Priorities in support of the National Defense Strategy. Work in this Project is performed by the U.S. Army Futures Command. Work in this Project is coordinated with PE 0602145A (NGCV Technology), 0602143A (Soldier Lethality Technology), and 0603118A (Soldier Lethality Advanced Technology).
