Clothing & Equipment
Abstract
Funding in this project supports the Army's Cross Functional Teams (CFT) initiatives. It supports engineering and manufacturing development tasks related to individual clothing and equipment with the goal of enhancing the lethality, survivability, and mobility as well as the quality of life of the individual Soldier. It funds formal Developmental Testing/Operational Testing of preproduction and production representative systems leveraging advancements in materials, fabrication techniques, moisture management, flame resistant, insect protection, extreme environmental protection and camouflage, to include evaluation, test, and conduct of Soldier evaluations of Organizational Clothing and Individual Equipment appropriate for use in extreme or multi-climate environments; not to be precluded other climates and environments. Goal is to increase the capabilities and durability of tactical and non-tactical clothing and individual equipment. Includes integration and interface on the Soldier system. This project will transition capabilities from our Science and Technology partners to increase performance and safety of Soldier clothing and equipment. It will continue to support cross-service initiatives to increase commonality.
