TWV Protection Kits
Abstract
This program element supports periodic, evolutionary upgrade of survivability and crew protection for Heavy Tactical Vehicles (HTV) as described in the Tactical Wheeled Vehicle (TWV) Strategy and individual variants' Capability Production Documents. The upgrades will leverage the Army Technology Objective's (ATO) survivability and Army Research Laboratory's (ARL) research and development activities to develop and evaluate kits which increase the protection level of the HTV to the MRAP 1.1 level while anticipating changing threat environments, protection gaps, or improving the operating performance, efficiency, and reliability through armor weight reduction. FY15 funding will be used to develop and test an armored solution for the newly produced Heavy Equipment Transporter (HET).
