Field Sustainment Support ED
Abstract
This project supports the System Development and Demonstration (SDD) of critical distribution and sustainment capabilities to include cargo aerial delivery, field shelters, showers, latrines, heaters, mortuary affairs systems, organizational equipment, and other combat service support equipment to fill identified theater distribution and services capability gaps, improve unit sustainability, and increase combat effectiveness. Project supports the demonstration of engineering development models and Type Classification of cargo parachutes, airdrop containers and other aerial delivery equipment to improve safety, effectiveness, and efficiency of airborne operations. Project supports development of tactical field systems and support equipment such as heaters, camouflage systems and base camp equipment. This project develops critical enablers that support the Quartermaster (QM) Force Transformation Strategy and the Army's Modular Force Capabilities by maintaining readiness through fielding and integrating new equipment. This project also ensures Army Expeditionary Forces are capable of rapid deployment by providing aerial delivery initiatives. These reduce sustainment requirements, related Combat Support/Combat Service Support (CS/CSS), lift demands, the combat zone footprint, and costs for logistical support.
