SOLDIER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Abstract
This funding supports System Capability and Manufacturing Process Demonstration (SC&MPD) phase of Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) tasks related to Individual Soldier Ballistic Protection. It funds system integration and formal DT/OT of preproduction and production representative systems leveraging advancements in technology to continue incremental improvements (sizing, functionality, heat management and reduction of weight/bulk) of body armor, and the transition of new technologies into production as they mature. It funds efforts to assess head protection component technologies to mitigate the effects of ballistic/blast and non-ballistic impact (crash) threats, continue to increase eyewear ballistic/blast protection, and transition to production.
