Enable DoD Responsiveness

Abstract

This project enhances US 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 Counter-Improvised Explosive Device (C-IED) and Counter Improvised-Threat (C-IT) solutions that further enable the maneuverability and force protection of deployed US Joint Forces. This methodology leverages the authorities, access, and capabilities of the entire US 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), Counter- small Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-sUAS) Vehicle-Attached IED (VAIED), Anti-Armor IED (AIED) Buried IED, Radio Controlled IED (RCIED), Personnel-Borne IED (PBIED), Booby Trapped Structures (BTS), Improvised WMD, Water-Borne IED (WBIED), improvised threats within tunnels, and emerging threats that are identified by the warfighter deployed forward.
