STEP

Abstract

The Small Tactical Electrical Power (STEP) is a modernization program for existing legacy 2kW and 3kW systems, that will provide small tactical electric power capabilities less than 5-Kilowatts (<5kW), that is durable and reliable, in order to operate in the austere environments of today?s battlefield. The STEP program will consist of three distinct power generating and power storage capabilities. These systems will be approached along lines of efforts that associate with each system; STEP Lightweight (STEP-LW), STEP Hybrid Augmentation Systems (STEP HAS), and STEP 3kW. The STEP program is a critical enabler to the Army modernization priorities under Army Futures Command Soldier Lethality Cross Function Team (CFT) and Network CFT. It will be power sources for Soldier borne sensors, lasers and optics.
