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), and is durable and reliable, in order to operate in the austere environments of today's battlefield. The STEP program will consist of two major lines of effort providing three distinct power generating and power storage capabilities. These systems will be approached along lines of effort that associate with each system; STEP Lightweight (STEP-LW) and STEP 3kW will provide power generation and the STEP Hybrid Augmentation Systems (STEP HAS) will be an add-on for both systems that will provide power storage. 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.
