Expeditionary Mobile Base Camp Technology
Abstract
This Project matures and validates fully integrated holistic expeditionary base camp (EBC) capabilities with mission-specific plug and play components, subsystems, and modules designed to optimize manpower requirements, enhance situational awareness, increase Soldier readiness and survivability, optimize habitation, reduce logistics footprint, enhance supportability, and reduce cost. EBC systems provide an operational capability for small combat units (battalion and below) and Soldiers in varying environments, which are rapidly deployable and re-locatable, require no Military Construction, and need limited materiel handing support. This Project matures technologies that can be combined to create mission specific lab demonstrators and develops metrics and methodologies to measure performance characteristics. Efforts in this Project support the Army Science and Technology Soldier Portfolio. Work in this Project is fully coordinated with Program Element (PE) 0602784A and 0603734A (Military Engineering Technology), PE 0603001A (Warfighter Advanced Technology), PE 0603004A (Weapons and Munitions Advanced Technology), PE 0603005A (Combat Vehicle and Automotive Advanced Technology), PE 0603125A (Combating Terrorism Technology Development), and PE 0603772A (Advanced Tactical Computer Science and Sensor Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Science and Technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. In Fiscal Year 2019, work in this Project realigns into XW5, titled Small Unit Expeditionary Maneuver Tech, along with 283 Airdrop Adv Tech.
