DECONTAMINATION SYSTEMS (EMD)
Abstract
This project provides Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) for: (1) Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP); (2) Contamination Indicator Decontamination Assurance System (CIDAS); (3) General Purpose Decontaminant (GPD); (4) Joint Service Equipment Wipe (JSEW); and (5) Joint Biological Agent Decontamination System (JBADS). Experimentation and demonstration will be used in this phase to reduce risk and inform supporting materiel solutions, CONOPS and TTPs. The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Decontamination System MDAP project will develop an integrated decontamination containment system and decontaminant delivery system to support the JSF program office Live Fire Test and Evaluation (LFT&E) to satisfy specific F-35 decontamination requirements through aircraft-unique interfaces and demonstrate the aircraft's ability to meet CB decontamination and survivability requirements. The CIDAS is a contamination indicator/decontamination assurance technology. It will consist of an indicator and an applicator, for which there will be three applicator configurations (a small-scale, mid-scale and large scale applicator). The indicator will be sprayed on tactical vehicles, aircraft, ships, crew-served weapons, and individual weapons that may have been exposed to traditional and non-traditional chemical contamination. CIDAS is a new capability for the Joint Forces that will reduce the logistics burden of decontamination by indicating presence and location of traditional (Nerve and Blister) and non-traditional chemical agents on militarily relevant surfaces pre- and post-decontamination. General Purpose Decontaminant (GPD) is a liquid, field adjustable decontaminant for chemical and biological agents that will provide thorough decontamination capabilities for tactical vehicles, shipboard surfaces, crewserved weapons, and individual/personal weapons in hostile and non-hostile environments that have been exposed to traditional and non-traditional CB contamination while providing the lowest logistical footprint. The Joint Service Equipment Wipe (JSEW) is a decontamination wipe that will provide immediate/operational decontamination capabilities for sensitive and non-sensitive equipment in hostile and non-hostile environments that have been exposed to chemical agents/contamination and shall decontaminate Nerve and Blister agents from a starting liquid challenge of 10 g/m2 to less than or equal to 1 g/m2 and non-traditional agents from a starting liquid challenge of 5 g/m2 to less than or equal to 1 g/m2. In addition, the JSEW is intended to be a replacement for the Individual Equipment Decontamination Kit (M295). Follow on increments of JSEW may include biological agent capability and/or use on skin. The JBADS will provide the capability to conduct biological and chemical agent decontamination of the interior and exterior of aircraft and vehicle platforms. The capabilities will be provided in two phases. Phase I will provide thorough biological decontamination of the interior and exterior of cargo aircraft. The JBADS Phase I is a capability set that will include a shelter to encapsulate an airframe, a decontamination delivery system (e.g. hot-humid air-blower, etc.), environmental control and monitoring system(s), and other ancillary components required to ensure efficacious biological agent decontamination. It will provide the capability to decontaminate biologically contaminated airframes to safe levels and allow more rapid return to service. Phase II will expand upon the Phase I capability set. Phase II will develop multiple decontaminants and modular designs to address various platforms and chemical agent decontamination.
