Test Equipment Development
Abstract
This project supports development and demonstration of state-of-the-art calibration standards and techniques, and upgrades/improvements to existing Army calibration systems. It provides for feasibility studies, market research, inventory analyses, bid sample testing, and prototyping to support calibration systems and general-purpose test and diagnostic equipment acquisitions. Primary efforts under this project include testing of an up-armor ready AN/GSM-421(V2) tactical calibration capability, development of calibration software, development of a calibration capability for chemical and biological agent detection systems and night vision testers, improvement of test and measurement equipment performance envelopes via preplanned product improvements (P3I), and development/evaluation of advanced technology and higher reliability calibration systems and general-purpose test, measurement and diagnostic equipment (TMDE). Preplanned product improvements are underway to current test and measurement systems to overcome deficiencies and voids in existing organic capabilities and to ensure the operational readiness, accuracy, effectiveness and safety of Army weapons and combat support systems. These improvements will employ reconfigurable open electronics architecture and computer-based instrumentation wherever feasible and will be focused on reducing test equipment footprints to improve deployability and mobility in areas of operation.
