ENGINEER SUPPORT EQUIPMENT - ED
Abstract
This project supports development, demonstration, testing and evaluation within the Combat Engineer and Construction Support Equipment arena. These items include critical life support equipment such as diving, fire fighting, fire suppression, urban operations, breathable air compressors, and emergency and recovery sets. The Combat Engineer and Construction equipment consists of the Surveying, Firefighting Individual Requirements Equipment Support (FIRES), Concrete and Masonry, Electricians, Plumbers, Pipefitters, Field Lighting Sets, Diving Equipment, Surface Swimmer Support Sets, Surface Supplied Diving Set, procurement of new Technical/Special Tools, Pioneer Support Set, and the Pioneer Land Clearing and Building Erection Set. Funding will support the procurement of market samples and testing for Soldier Portable SKO, and critical life support equipment such as the Deep Sea Set, Underwater Construction Set, Closed Circuit Scuba Set, the Family of High Pressure Breathable Air Compressors (FOHPBAC), Vertical Skills Engineer Construction Kit (VSECK), Fire Protection Equipment (FPE) and Family of Boats and Motors (FOBAM). All of these programs are in the Engineering and Manufacturing Development Phase. BUDGET ITEM JUSTIFICATION: These systems provide state-of-the-art deployable, critical life support and combat engineer and construction equipment supporting the joint warfighter. This program will minimize transportation requirements and reduce the logistical footprint by eliminating obsolete equipment and reducing the number of programs. Funding shall allow for development of dual use systems that support wartime use by soldiers to include Special Forces and peacetime operations that include national disaster relief and homeland security operations. Much of this equipment has an inherent short Economic Useful Life (EUL). Investments used to revise, update and obtain equipment within this portfolio has resulted in reductions in footprint, and increases in safety, effectiveness, and readiness.
