Soldier Blast, Ballistic, and Sensory Protection

Abstract

This effort supports the investigation of novel materials, component design, and material modeling to design and develop technologies that protect Soldiers against ballistic, blast, and directed energy threats. This effort utilizes a cross-disciplinary, human-focused approach to develop technologies which optimize tradeoffs in ballistic and blast protective component design. This effort is fully coordinated with PE 0602787A (Medical Technology) / Project VB4 (System Biology And Network Science Technology), Project 874 (Cbt Casualty Care Tech), PE 0602618A (Ballistics Technology) / Project H80 (Survivability And Lethality Technology), PE0602105A (Materials Technology) / Project H84 (Materials), PE0602716A (Human Factors Engineering Technology) / Project H70 (Human Fact Eng Sys Dev), PE 0603001A (Warfighter Advanced Technology) / Project J50 (Future Warrior Technology Integration), and Project FF6 (Individual Protection). This effort supports the Force Protection Soldier & Small Unit capability research and addresses the Army top challenge of easing overburdened Soldiers in small units.
