COMBAT SERVICE SUPPORT SYSTEMS

Abstract

This project supports the System Development and Demonstration (SDD) of critical distribution and sustainment capabilities to include base camp subsystems, field shelters, showers, latrines, heaters, mortuary affairs systems, camouflage systems, organizational equipment, and other combat service support equipment to fill identified theater distribution and services capability gaps, improve unit sustainability, and increase combat effectiveness. Project supports development of expeditionary tactical field systems and support equipment to improve safety, effectivness, and efficiency of deployed soldiers. This project develops critical enablers that support the Quartermaster (QM) Force Transformation Strategy and the Army's Modular Force Capabilities by maintaining readiness through fielding and integrating new equipment. This project also ensures Army Expeditionary Forces are capable of rapid deployment and reduces sustainment requirements, related Combat Support/Combat Service Support (CS/CSS), lift demands, the combat zone footprint, and costs for logistical support.
