Combat Vehicle Prototyping
Abstract
Next Generation Combat Vehicle Prototyping (CVP) provides focused investment for the development of the next of generation combat vehicles. The purpose of this funding is to integrate advanced technology enabled capabilities developed in the S&T portfolio, demonstrate their ability to meet emerging military needs, develop sub-system and system level prototypes, provide hardware for Soldier operational evaluation/feedback, and determine their integration potential across the current Army portfolio of ground vehicles. Prototyping allows for aggressive innovation (provides a bridge from Science and Technology (S&T) investment to vehicle integration and operational use), informs requirements through User Evaluations, ensures requirements are met, mitigates capability gaps and reduces integration risks. Additional funding in FY 2019 will support working with Industry (via OTAs) on concept development, trade studies, technology maturation/testing, technical/operational/affordability analyses, and prototyping and demonstration of combat vehicles (both manned and autonomous) to assess future concepts and designs that integrate emerging Science and Technology advancements to include integration and fusion of data from different sensors and subsystems within the platform and how it will be displayed to the crewman and/or Autonomous vehicle operator on the battlefield to improve crew reaction time and platform fight ability. Funding will also support acceleration of the TARDEC NGCV 1.0 Prototype.
