CONTAMINATION AVOIDANCE (ACD&P)
Abstract
This Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P) Project supports Component Advanced Development and System Integration (CAD/SI) of reconnaissance, detection, identification, and hazard prediction equipment, hardware, and software. Individual efforts are: (1) Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear Dismounted Reconnaissance Systems (CBRN DRS), formerly JNBCRS Increment 2; (2) Joint Biological Standoff Detector System (JBSDS); (3) Joint Biological Tactical Detection System (JBTDS); (4) Joint Chemical Agent Detector (JCAD); (5) Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) Support; (6) Next Generation Chemical Standoff Detection (NGCSD); and (7) Non Traditional Agent Detection (NTA Detection). The CBRN Dismounted Reconnaissance Systems (CBRN DRS) consists of portable, commercial and government off-the-shelf equipment to provide personnel protection from current and emerging CBRN hazards and detection, identification, sample collection, decontamination, marking, and hazard reporting of CBRN threats. The system supports dismounted Reconnaissance, Surveillance, and CBRN Site Assessment missions to enable more detailed CBRN information reports for commanders. The "JNBCRS Increment 2" was renamed to "CBRN DRS" starting in FY10. The Joint Biological Standoff Detector System (JBSDS) is employing an incremental acquisition strategy. JBSDS Increment 1 was the first standoff early warning biological detection (BD) system for the Joint Services. The system demonstrated the capability to provide near real time detection of biological attacks/incidents and standoff early detection/warning (Detect to Warn) of biological Warfare (BW) agents at fixed sites or in static mode on vehicles. It demonstrated the capability of providing standoff detection, ranging, tracking, discrimination (bio vs. non-bio), of BW aerosol clouds for advanced warning, reporting, and protection. The JBSDS will augment and integrate with existing BD systems to provide a BD network capable of near real time detection and warning theater-wide to limit the effects of biological agent hazards against U.S. forces at the tactical and operational levels of war. The JBSDS can be employed in support of various areas (e.g., fixed sites, Air Ports of Debarkation/Sea Ports of Debarkation (APODs/SPODs), amphibious landing sites, etc.), or on platforms (ships, aircraft or ground vehicles). The Increment 1 systems will be used for training to support Increment 2 concept of operations development. The JBSDS Increment 2 builds on the capabilities demonstrated during the development of JBSDS Increment 1. The JBSDS Increment 2 system will focus on providing 24-hour operations, improving the false alarm rate and detection sensitivity, while decreasing size, weight and power. The JBSDS Increment 2 will also integrate with the global information network to provide near real time detection and warning theater-wide to limit the effect of biological agent hazards against U.S. forces at the tactical and operational levels of war. During the Technology Development phase, JBSDS will hold competitive prototyping and key sub-system development, conduct test and evaluation of prototypes, improve agent-simulant modeling, prepare Milestone B documentation and preliminary designs. The Joint Biological Tactical Detection System (JBTDS) will integrate, test and produce the first lightweight (less than 37 lbs), low cost biological surveillance system that will detect, collect and identify biological warfare agent aerosols. JBTDS will provide warning through the Joint Warning And Reporting Network (JWARN) and archive sample for follow-on analyses. JBTDS will provide near real time local audio and visual alarm for use by any Military Occupational Specialty (MOS). JBTDS components will be man portable, battery operable and easy to employ. JBTDS will be used organically at battalion level and below and provide notification of a hazard and enhanced battle space awareness to protect and preserve the force. When networked, JBTDS will augment existing biological detection systems to provide a theater-wide seamless array capable of biological detection, identification and warning. Units equipped with JBTDS will conduct biological surveillance missions to detect BWA aerosol clouds, collect a sample, and identify the agent to support time sensitive force protection decisions. The Joint Chemical Agent Detector (JCAD) efforts will evaluate current technologies focusing on capability gaps for emerging threats not addressed by M4 and M4E1 JCAD. The Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) Support program will integrate System of Systems (SoS) solutions across the Armed Services for MDAPs having Chemical and Biological Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) survivability requirements. The program will demonstrate modular, net-centric, "plug and play" capabilities for mounted and dismounted CBRN reconnaissance that will establish a common CBRN reconnaissance architecture across the services. The Next Generation Chemical Standoff Detection (NGCSD), a next generation chemical standoff effort that was initiated under the JSLSCAD program, will provide early warning for both traditional and non-traditional chemical agent attacks at fixed sites, forward operating bases and on Service designated vehicles and ships. This effort will develop and integrate new standoff sensor technologies for future standoff systems. The detection system will interface with the Services and Joint Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) architectures. The Non Traditional Agent Detection (NTA Detection) projects will conduct system assessment methodology development, environmental monitor technology research and prototype development. These tasks are in the interest of advancing potential technologies towards fielding solutions.
