Abstract
This project develops and demonstrates manufacturing processes that enable improvements in producibility and affordability of emerging and enabling components and subsystems of Army air, ground, lethality, Soldier and command/control/communications/intelligence systems. Focus is on components and subsystems such as advanced armor, power and energy devices, rotors, sensors, displays, propellants and gun tubes. In addition, work is conducted to advance the state of the art in processing and fabrication techniques for coatings, multifunctional materials and structural elements for Army specific applications. Work supports all Army S&T portfolios. Work in this PE is related to and fully coordinated with PE 0602105A (Materials Technology), PE 0602211A (Aviation Technology, PE 0602303A (Missile Technology), PE 0602601A (Combat Vehicle and Automotive Technology), PE 0602618A (Ballistics Technology), PE 0602705A (Electronics and Electronic Devices), PE 0603003 (Aviation Advanced Technology), PE 0603005A (Combat Vehicle and Automotive Advanced Technology) and PE 0603710A (Night Vision Advanced Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering S&T focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Army Research, Development and Engineering Command (RDECOM) and efforts are executed by the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) and appropriate Army Research, Development and Engineering Centers (RDECs).
