AGILE INTEGRATION & DEMONSTRATION
Abstract
This project demonstrates technologies with high payoff potential to address current technology shortfalls or future force capability gaps. Efforts include hybrid electric power technologies to reduce use of fossil fuel generators and identifying, accelerating, and improving rapidly deployable force protection technologies to enable troops at small, remote bases or integrated in with local communities (e.g., villages) to detect, assess,and defend against a range of enemy threats since they generally do not have the organic assetts or levels of protection like that at larger bases. This project supports the Command Control and Communications and Ground portfolios. Work in this project is complementary to and is fully coordinated with PE 0602105A (Materials Technology), PE 0602303A (Missile Technology), PE 0602601A (Combat Vehicle and Automotive Technology), PE 0602618A (Ballistics Technology), PE 0602705A (Electronics and Electronic Devices), PE 0602784A (Military Engineering Technology), 0603005A (Combat Vehicle and Automotive Advanced Technology), PE 0603710A (Night Vision Advanced Technology), and PE 0603734A (Military Engineering Advanced Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense, Research and Engineering Science and Technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Army Research, Development, and Engineering Command (RDECOM) and the Army Engineer Research and Development Center.
