Soldier Protection and Survival Systems
Abstract
This project provides development, testing, and evaluation of signature reducing materials and technology and specialized equipment to meet the unique operator protection and survival requirements for Special Operations Forces (SOF), which include: Army Rangers; Army Special Forces; Navy Sea, Air, Land (SEAL) teams; Navy Special Boat Units; Air Force Operators; and Marine Raiders. Specialized equipment improves survivability protection from the environment by providing the operator with hearing protection and clothing systems, load bearing equipment, and personnel safety equipment to improve the mobility of SOF, while conducting varied missions. Signature reducing materials and technology reduce the probability of detection by battlefield threat sensors. These missions are generally conducted in harsh environments, for unspecified periods and in locations requiring small unit autonomy.
