Tactical Wheeled Vehicle - Leader Follower (TWV-LF) - RD for PdM Applique & Large Unmanned Ground Systems (ALUGS) and RCIS Type II

Abstract

Tactical Wheeled Vehicle (TWV) Leader Follower (LF) Program in PdM Applique & Large Unmanned Ground Systems (ALUGS) builds upon the Tank Automotive Research Development & Engineering Center (TARDEC) Expedient Leader Follower (ELF) Operational Technology Demonstration (OTD) to provide a limited automation capability to the Palletized Load System (PLS) A1. Current PdM efforts will lay the groundwork for future Program of Record (PoR) capability, expanding the TARDEC efforts to include up to seven (7) unmanned Follower vehicles. Funding will support cost, schedule and performance risk reduction efforts to include Capabilities Document input, close monitoring of ELF OTD activities that feed cost estimates, capture technical and test data, provide test support, develop Modeling and Simulation (M&S) use cases, and develop a Software Integration Lab (SIL).
