CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT
Abstract
This funding supports efforts to evaluate and integrate technologies and representative or prototype systems that help expedite Soldier uniform and clothing technology transition from the laboratory to operational use. Efforts focus on proving out commonality across as broad a spectrum of users as possible to provide a modular, integrated uniform/clothing system from skin out and head-to-toe. It funds efforts to investigate new technologies and domestically available fabrics with Flame Resistance, moisture wicking and insect protection technologies. New technologies are investigated to monitor health and improve Soldier lethality, survivability, reduce weight, and improve affordability, mobility and comfort in combat and training/admin environments.
