Pocket-Sized Forward Entry Device (PFED) Increment 2

Abstract

The Pocket-sized Forward Entry Device (PFED) Increment 2 will be a software only application that operates on the existing Nett Warrior End User Device (EUD). It will provide the dismounted Forward Observer (FO) and Fire Support Teams (FISTs) the capability and functionality to accurately and rapidly locate ground targets and enable the Nett Warrior Ensemble to digitally process a Call For Fire; linking the sensor to the shooter with an efficient integration of multiple acquisition programs. PFED Increment 2 aligns with the Army's Fires and Effects Concept of Operation and describes how fires and effects contribute to Networked Fires as part of the combined arms teams in Army, Special Operations Forces (SOF), and Joint operations. PFED Increment 2 answers the Mobile Handheld Computing Environment requirement that all handheld applications reside on the Nett Warrior End User Device. PFED Increment 2 will provide Category 1 target mensuration via Precision Fires Imagery enabling the effective use of new precision munitions. Project code EF7 funds the evolutionary software development of this handheld Fires Command and Control (C2) system.
