INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION (OP SYS DEV)

Abstract

Modernize Individual Protection (MODPROT) addresses obsolescence issues with Individual Protective equipment and the need to modernize the Joint Services fielded chemical and biological protection with capabilities meeting or exceeding the Services requirements. MODPROT will modernize current chemical protective footwear by conducting 1) Limited User Evaluation (LUE) in support of the Alternative Source Qualification plan for a suitable replacement to the Alternative Footwear Solutions (AFS) and 2) modernizing the Integrated Footwear System (IFS). MODPROT will also conduct a modernization effort of the Joint Service Lightweight Integrated Suit Technology (JSLIST) Block 1 Glove Upgrade Flame Resistant (JB1GU FR) glove, and reverse engineering of maintenance and repair procedures for the Joint Services Mask Leakage Tester (JSMLT). JSGPM provides for filter modernization and enhancements against Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs) and Toxic Industrial Materials (TIMs) on the Joint Service General Purpose Mask (JSGPM). Filter upgrades will be provided for fielded Protection systems to enhance respiratory and ocular protection.
