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. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project supports the Army Modernization Priorities Next Generation Combat Vehicle, Soldier Lethality, and Future Vertical Lift. Work in this Project is performed by the United States (US) Army Futures Command. Work in this Project is coordinated with PE 0602145A (Next Generation Combat Vehicle Technology), 0602143A (Soldier Lethality Technology), 0603465A (Future Vertical Lift Advanced Technology) and 0603118A (Soldier Lethality Advanced Technology).
