Enable DoD Responsiveness
Abstract
This project enhances U.S. Joint Forces’ responsiveness to improvised weapons. DTRA builds counter-threat solutions in full collaboration with its partners. Through a robust communities of action approach, DTRA coordinates with the Combatant Commanders (CCDRs), the Joint Staff, the Military Departments/Services, the interagency, coalition partners, industry, and academia to develop C-IED and C-IT solutions that further enable the maneuverability and force protection of deployed U.S. Joint Forces. This methodology leverages the authorities, access, and capabilities of the entire U.S. Government and its partners as counter-improvised threat solutions are developed and realized. DTRA responds to the following improvised threats: Home-Made Explosives (HME), Vehicle-Borne IED (VBIED), Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Vehicle-Attached IED (VAIED), Anti-Armor IED (AIED) Buried IED, Radio Controlled IED (RCIED), Person-Borne IED (PBIED), Booby Trapped Structures (BTS), Improvised WMD, Water-Borne IED (WBIED), Tunnels, and emerging threats that are identified by the warfighter deployed forward.
