Abstract

Funding in this project supports the Army's Cross Functional Teams (CFT) initiatives. It supports Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) to include design integration and manufacturing of production representative articles, formal DT/OT and Soldier touchpoints, and continued development of SPS technologies transitioning from VS4. It leverages advancements in technology to continue improvements to the Army's Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) portfolio to include hard and soft body armor components (including Vital Torso Protection (VTP) and Torso and Extremity Protection (TEP) respectfully), helmets (including Integrated Head Protection System (IHPS) and Next Generation (NG) IHPS), Military Protective Eyewear systems and other personal protective equipment to include female specific design and development. This project will continue to support cross-service initiatives to increase commonality.
