Protect (Op Sys Dev)

Abstract

The Protect Operational System Development Project provides the Joint Force the continued readiness of fielded collective and individual protective capabilities and provides size, weight and power improvements to reduce logistical burden on the warfighter and services. Efforts included in this Project are: (1) Modernization Protection Collective Protection (MODPROT CP), and (2) Modernization Protection Individual Protection (MODPROT IP) The Modernization Protection Collective Protection (MODPROT CP) effort addresses modernization and obsolescence across the DoD CP portfolio to increase readiness, sustainability, reliability, and affordability of these systems. MODPROT CP modernizes decades old collective protection equipment reducing costs, shortening lead times, and updating key components to extend service life and ensure affordable and procurable to warfighters. MODPROT CP will conduct system filter surveillance testing to improve system sustainment, develop a design guide for ground vehicle platforms, modernize mobile platform filters, modernize liners and closures for collective protection shelters, and explore new filter media technology transitions. The Modernization Protection Individual Protection (MODPROT IP) project addresses obsolescence issues with IP equipment and the need to modernize fielded IP with capabilities to meet or exceed the Services requirements. MODPROT IP will conduct modernization efforts and reverse engineering of maintenance and repair procedures for the Joint Services Mask Leakage Tester (JSMLT), upgrade fielded protection systems to enhance respiratory and ocular protection of aircrew systems, modernize fielded filters, and explore updates to fielded personal protective equipment (PPE).
