To the Reader:
Joint Vision 2010, the Chairman's of the Joint Chiefs of Staff vision of future joint warfighting concepts, will guide the services
toward a more effective future joint force. America's Army is ready to move forward as the land component member of that joint
warfighting force. The Army brings the ability to conduct prompt operations on land throughout the spectrum of crisis. The
Army is modernizing its forces according to the concepts of Army Vision 2010 and the guidelines of the Army modernization
objectives. Each modernization objective and each Army vision concept has a counterpart in the future operational concepts of
Joint Vision 2010, ensuring that the Army remains synchronized with the Chairman's vision.
This handbook outlines the major programs that the Army is pursuing to realize that vision. These systems will provide the tools
for America's trained and ready soldiers to be the most powerful force in the world. It is our hope that you will find this book a
valuable and informative reference work.

Leading the Way to JV 2010 and Beyond

"...Tomorrow's Force must be as ready as today's and therein lies a very big challenge.
Wliile we have been able to maintain high readiness levels throughout the years of downsizing,
we must now turn to replacing old equipment and sustaining a prudent modernization program in thefiiture."
GEN John M. Shalikashvili
Chairman, joint Chiefs of Staff
April 10, 1996

The United States military is in transition, heading away from a large Cold War force to a smaller but more capable joint force that can meet all of
America's defense needs. The rapid advance of information technology makes this transformation possible. Declining defense resources make this
transformation essential to the continued dominance of the U.S. military. In Joint Vision 2010, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff describes
the operational concepts and capabilities of that future joint force.
While all the services are moving towards Joint Vision 2010 (JV 2010), the Army leads the way. Army Vision 2010 provides the directional azimuth
for modernization through its six patterns of operations. The Army Modernization Plan, in turn, describes five modernization objectives that align
with the operational concepts of JV 2010. The Modernization Plan and the Force XXI process will move us to Army XXI, which will be an integral part of JV 2010's vision.
Army Weapon Systems 1997 provides an in-depth look at the weapon systems that equip America's Army today and will equip Army XXI in
the future. The programs in this book range from high to low profile, but each program has an important role to play in modernization. Army
XXI will require the full package of systems and upgrades if it and JV 2010 are to become a reality. This book is not a catalog of mix-and-match
systems, but a description of an integrated program that will bring the Army into the future.

JOINT VISION 2010 AND ARMY XXI

"The nature of modem warfare demands that we fight as a joint team.
Tin's was important yesterday, it is essential today, and it will he even more imperative tomorrow. Joint Vision 2010 provides
an operationally based template for the evolution of the Armed Forces for a challenging and uncertain future.
It must become a benchmarli for the Service and Unified Command visions."
GEN John M. Shnlikashvili
Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff

JV 2010 aims to provide a conceptual template for how America's Armed Forces will achieve new levels
of effectiveness in joint warfighting through the integration of its people with new technological opportunities. America's Armed Forces have the best people, but they must be given the best technology and
the right kind of technology in order to retain their advantage over the rest of the world. The Armed
Forces must modernize in such a way that they are prepared to fight a 21st Century conflict. The concepts in JV 2010 will help guide that modernization to ensure that our people receive the technology that
will make the most difference.
The future vision of warfare inJV 2010 centers on Information Superiority, which is defined as the capability to collect, process, and disseminate an uninterrupted flow of information while exploiting or denying an adversary's ability to do the same. Information warfare involves both offensive operations against
an adversary's ability to collect and use data and defensive operations to protect our own information systems from direct and indirect attack. Information superiority requires that we dominate in both kinds
of operations.
Information superiority over an adversary makes it possible for U.S. forces to implement four operational
concepts: Dominant Maneuver, Precision Engagement, Focused Logistics, and Full-Dimensional
Protection. These four concepts focus on delivering massed effects (i.e. bringing the concentration of combat power against an adversary at the decisive time and place, without needing to physically mass forces as
much as in the past). Information Superiority can produce massed effects, because it creates an information imbalance between friendly forces and the adversary. Figure 1 shows how these concepts fit together.
JV 2010 describes dominant maneuver as the multidimensional application of information, engagement,
and mobility capabilities to position and employ widely dispersed joint air, land, sea, and space forces to
accomplish the assigned operational tasks. It is the old Army approach of shoot, move, and communicate taken to a much more sophisticated level.
Precision engagement is a system of systems that will enable our forces to locate the objective or target,
provide responsive command and control, generate the desired effect, assess our level of success, and
retain the flexibility to reengage with precision when required. Precision engagement reinforces dominant maneuver by allowing U.S. forces to shape the battlespace from extended ranges.

Figure 1

Emerging Operational Concepts

?^m^m^^swmS^^W^

Focused logistics is the fusion of information, logistics, and transportation technologies to provide rapid crisis response, to track and shift assets even while en
t route, and to deliver tailored logistics packages and sustainment directly at the
strategic, operational, and tactical level of operations. It will allow U.S. forces to project their power more quickly and operate more efficiently.
Full dimensional protection will guarantee U.S. forces freedom of action in the battlespace by protecting them from many of the same technologies they will exploit.
A multi-layer defense against ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and nuclear, biological and chemical weapons will give the future joint force the freedom to deploy,
maneuver and engage the adversary quickly and decisively.
These operational concepts add up to full spectrum dominance of an adversary
across all categories of conflict. JV 2010 is about merging the best technology and
the right technology with the best people to achieve full spectrum dominance. The
Army is already on its way there.

ARMY SUPPORT OF JV 2010: OBJECTIVES AND SYSTEMS

The Army Modernization Plan lays out five modernization objectives that align with the operational concepts of
JV 2010. The technology and concepts that are being
tested in the Force XXI process will be the means to
achieving those modernization objectives and moving
toward Army XXI. It is through the Force XXI process,
and the synchronization of Army capabilities and a modernization strategy, that the Army is leading the way to JV
2010 and beyond. Figure 2 shows the linkage between
theJV 2010 operational concepts and the five Army modernization objectives.
Win the information war; dominate the maneuver battlefield; conduct precision strike; project and sustain; and
protect the force are the Army's modernization objectives.
Each modernization objective captures the same future
capabilities as itsJV 2010 counterpart. Army XXI will utilize the full package of operational concepts inJV 2010,
putting Army systems and Army warfighters at the core
of the future joint force.

"Modernization has had to make do with what we could salvage."

The Hon. Gilbert E Decker
Assistant Secretary of the Army for
Research, Development, and Acquisition

The Army Modernization Plan (AMP) describes the what and why of the systems and capabilities that will go into Army XXL Each objective
is a statement of capabilities that the Army will need in the future to retain an overwhelming technological and doctrinal advantage over
opposing forces. The plan also describes the systems needed to realize those capabilities. Getting the resources to modernize our forces
towards each objective is critical to making Army XXI a success.
"Who the hell gets excited about a 2 1/2 ton truck? Well, 1 do.
Ifyou are in combat and can't move supplies you're in trouble."
The Hon. Gilbert E Deckel
Assistant Secretary of the Army for
Research, Development, and Acquisition

Project and Sustain

Project & sustain describes those systems
and capabilities needed to rapidly
deploy U.S. forces into a potentially
hostile area and to sustain and
augment them as necessary once
deployed. This objective covers the critical logistic systems needed to move a force to and within a theater and to keep that force supplied. It
includes non-Army strategic lift programs like
the USAF C-17 and the Navy's Large Medium
Speed Roll-on/Roll-off Ship (LMSR). Army
efforts to improve the self-deployability of systems like the Comanche and Apache Longbow
also support this objective. Project & Sustain
covers the workhorses of intratheater lift like the
UH-60 Black Hawk, the High Mobility
Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV), the
Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles, and the
Palletized Load System. It also includes systems
like the Total Distribution Program which track the flow of supplies. Improved logistic efficiency will permit a move away from "supply pushto "just in time" logistics that will make optimal use of lift assets. Finally, it includes the systems like Force Provider, Family of Operational
Rations and Deployable Medical Systems which improve the quality of life for soldiers in forward areas.

Protect the Force

Protect the Force describes the systems and capabilities needed to enhance the survivability of U.S. forces against the wide range of modern battlefield threats. Once a force has been projected into a region, it must be able to defend itself against deep strikes by the adversary. If the forward assembly areas cannot be defended, the U.S. cannot easily build up its forces. The Army requires systems for
theater missile defense and chemical and biological weapon detection and defense. The Theater High Altitude Area Defense
System (THAAD) and Medium Air Defense System (MEADS) are two systems in this category. The Army must also improve the
survivability of its forces in combat, which means enhancing soldier survivability through the development of items like lightweight body armor
and combat identification systems.
"There's a whole bunch of unglamorous things in the Army that are absolutely vital to the combat force."
The Hon. Gilbert I: Decker
Assistant Secretary of the Ann)' for
Research, Development, and Acquisition

Win the Information War

, Win the information war describes systems and capabilities needed to give U.S. forces an overwhelming
information advantage in combat. Once the U.S.
projects a force into a region and begins the
build-up for the maneuver battle, the force
must know where the adversary is and what it is doing. The
Comanche will serve as the commanders "eyes and ears" to
provide tactical reconnaissance and battlefield situational
awareness. As the ground maneuver element of the joint
force, the Army needs improved Command, Control,
Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C^I) systems
that will allow it to conduct deep simultaneous attacks
against the enemy, while limiting the exposure of friendly
forces. This includes systems that will provide all commanders and soldiers with total situational awareness, allowing
them to know where both friendly and hostile units are. It
includes the sensors that will detect and identify targets as
well as the systems that will interpret and move the data to
the appropriate users. It also includes the systems that will
protect information about the locations and numbers of
friendly forces.

Conduct Precision Strike

Conduct precision strike describes systems and
capabilities needed to strike at hostile forces in
their assembly areas and to shape the maneuver battlefield. As the projected force prepares to move to the maneuver battle, the Army, as part of
the joint team, must be able to destroy and disrupt the
adversary as much as possible before Army maneuver units
make contact. Both the Apache Longbow and the
Comanche will allow the commander to plan and execute
the close and deep battles rapidly, day or night and in any
weather. Systems such as the Army Tactical Missile System
(ATACMS) and the Multiple Launch Rocket System
(MLRS) using precision munitions will allow U.S. forces to
engage and destroy hostile forces before contact.
Dominate the Maneuver Battle
Dominate the maneuver battle describes the systems and capabilities needed to retain land force
dominance over opposing forces. When
Army maneuver units move to engage the adversary, they
must have an overwhelming technological advantage in
order to produce massed effects. A smaller Army needs to
hit harder, move faster and have better situational awareness, if it is to dominate the battlefield. This means providing upgrades to existing systems like Apache, Abrams and
Bradley, as well as acquiring new systems like Line-of-Sight
Anti-Tank (LOSAT) and the Crusader advanced field
artillery system. These systems will ensure that as U.S.
maneuver units close with the adversary, they will have an
overwhelming technological advantage, achieving modernization overmatch.

ARMY MODERNIZATION: LEADING THE WAY TO JV 2010 AND BEYOND

The Army is well-situated to lead the way toward the Chairman's vision of the future force of full spectrum dominance. But it can only do so if
;^n P'- - lately resourced. Most of the systems m this book are not glamorous and for some then contribution"A my
XXI may not be nnmechately clear. However, each system in the book is part of an integrated whole that will lead to Army XXI andJV 2010.

'
"...we mortgaged the modernization account to take care of the people. Now it's time to rebalance that equation.
GEN Dennis J. Reimer
Chief of Staff of the Ami)'
23 April 1996

The systems m this book, hke the capabilities in the Army Modernization Plan, are part of an integrated approach to make the Army of the future
capable of meeting the increased demands of our nation with fewer resources. Each system and each capability has an important role to 2Z
makmg modernization a reality Each system and each capability will contribute towards the Army's ability to respond to our natioSneeds
The systems m this book are today, investment to ensure the future readiness of our Army. The Army of tomorrow will relyy on these sys ems
to successfully perform all assigned missions.
^y^eras

"he Army of tomorrow will be a smaller, continental U.S. (CONUS) based force that will require a greater ability to
project and sustain its power anywhere in the world. To realize that objective, Army systems need to be light, lethal
and modular, so that it can project more capabilities with fewer resources. The Army also needs to have sufficient strategic and tactical lift assets
to move its forces around the globe. Finally, the Army must project itself efficiently by taking advantage of new technologies to move only what
is absolutely necessary. Improved logistical information systems and a new emphasis on split based operations will allow the Army to fully sustain its forces while projecting fewer support elements.
Major Regional Contingencies (MRCs) and crisis response operations are the most demanding scenarios for project and sustain, because they
require rapid movement of large numbers of assets. Systems and approaches that support these intensive operations will also support other missions such as humanitarian relief and peacekeeping. In any crisis, the Army will need highly lethal early entry forces that can help secure entry
points into a theater. Such forces need to be light, modular and rapidly transportable, but they also need improved defense and logistics assets
that will permit them to hold the entry points. One example in this area is the Force Projection Tactical Operations Center (FP TOC), which
will give the early entry commander an improved ability to manage the Theater Missile Defense (TMD) fight during the build-up phase.
Once the entry points are secure, the Army needs to be able to move heavier forces and supporting logistics forces into the theater quickly. This
rapid build-up phase relies on the availability of large transport aircraft and large roll-on/roll-off ships to move the necessary equipment and
supplies to the theater. The USAF C-17 and the USN Large Medium Speed Roll-On/Roll-Off (LMSR) ships are the critical programs for this
capability. The build-up phase also depends on basic items like rail cars to get armored vehicles to their ships and the Family of Medium Tactical
Vehicles (FMTV) to move the armored vehicles around the theater of war. There is also a role for advanced
technology programs like the total distribution program, which will allow the Army to track items through every phase of transport, as commercial shippers can.
As Army forces build up in a theater, those forces require more than just a constant flow of supplies. The Army needs compact lightweight support systems that can move the supplies and meet other needs, be they medical, recreational or logistical. Systems like Force Provider and the
Family of Operational Rations enhance the quality of life for soldiers in forward areas. Deployable Medical Systems (DEPMEDS) and
Telemedicine will greatly improve the medical care available to soldiers in forward areas. The Improved Family of Test Equipment will improve

MISSION:
CHARACTERISTICS:

The Black Hawk provides utility and assault helicopter capability.

The Black Hawk (UH-60) is a utility, tactical, transport helicopter that performs many missions in the Army. The Black Hawk
is the primary helicopter for air assault, general support, and aeromedical evacuation units. Modified Black Hawks also fulfill command and control, electronic warfare, and special operations roles. The Black Hawk has enhanced the overall mobility of the Army because of its dramatic improvements in troop capacity and cargo lift capability compared to the UH-1
"Huey" it replaces. Now, an entire 11-man, fully equipped infantry squad can be lifted in one Black Hawk, and the troops
can be transported faster and in most weather conditions. The Black Hawk also is the first utility and assault helicopter that
adds to the Army's Division-level mobility; for example, it can reposition a 105 mm howitzer, its crew of six, and up to 30
rounds of ammunition in a single lift. The aircraft's critical components and systems are armored or redundant to enable it
to withstand multiple small arms hits, and its airframe is designed to progressively crush on impact to protect the crew and
passengers in a crash. Ease of maintenance in the field was designed into the Black Hawk from the beginning.

MISSION:

The Combat Service Support Control System (CSSCS) will provide timely situational awareness and force projection information to determine capability to support current operations and sustain future operations. The CSSCS will rapidly collect, store, analyze, and disseminate critical logistics, medical, financial and personnel information.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The CSSCS is a computer software system designed to assist commanders and their staffs in the planning and execution
of logistics operations. CSS commanders and staffs are currently participating in the force-level planning and decision
making processes through a manual effort of gathering, correlating, and analyzing volumes of technical data from the
existing Standard Army Management Information Systems (STAMIS). The CSSCS can extract summary information from
the CSS STAMIS, accept input from other elements of the CSS community, and exchange information with other automated systems to evaluate CSS information with respect to the force-level commander's tactical courses of actions. The
CSSCS is the combat service support component of the Army Battle Command System (ABCS). The CSSCS will be organic to CSS units and headquarters staffs within the maneuver brigades, separate brigades, armored cavalry regiments,
Divisions, Corps, and Echelons Above Corps (EAC). The CSSCS will be comprised of computer units procured through
the Project Manager [Common Hardware/Software (PM CHS)], [Common Operating Environment (COE)l Software and
CSSCS-unique software. The CSSCS will be housed in the family of Standardized Integrated Command Post Systems provided by PM CHS.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) provides a common light tactical vehicle capability.
The HMMWV is a light, highly mobile, diesel-powered, four-wheel drive vehicle that uses a common 4,400 lbs payload
chassis. The HMMWV can be configured through the use of common components and kits to become a troop carrier,
armament carrier, S250 shelter carrier, ambulance, TOW missile carrier and a Scout vehicle. The 4,400 lbs variant was
developed as the prime mover for the light howitzer, towed VULCAN system, and heavier shelter carriers. It is a TriService program that also provides vehicles to satisfy Marine and Air Force requirements. The HMMWV program is
complementary to the Commercial Utility Cargo Vehicle. The HMMWV replaced the 1/4 ton Jeep, the M718A1
Ambulance, 1/2 ton Mule, 1 1/4 Gamma Goal, and M792 Ambulance.
Since its inception the HMMWV has undergone numerous design and configuration updates and changes. These
changes have included technological, environmental, operational and safety improvements such as higher payload
capability, radial tires, 1994 EPA emissions update, commercial bucket seats, three-point seat belts, four speed transmissions and, in some cases, turbo charged engines, air conditioning and central tire inflation systems. In response to
peace keeping missions, an Up-armored HMMWV was developed that provided increased ballistic and blast protection
primarily for the Military Police (MP). In addition, the Project Manager (PM) developed a Scout HMMWV which is
configured with a night vision device, a global positioning system, gun mounts and SINCGARS radios.
In 1995, the PM introduced the A2 configuration and the Expanded Capacity Vehicle (ECV) HMMWV The A2 incorporates the four speed, electronic transmission, the 6.5 liter diesel engine and improvements in transportability. The A2 serves
as a platform for other Army systems such as the Ground Based Common Sensor. The ECV vehicle also went into production in 1995. The payload of this vehicle will approach 5000 lbs. Its primary mission is that of an Up-armored vehicle for

PRODUCTION AND DEPLOYMENT

OPERATIONS AND SUPPORT

MISSION:

The Palletized Load System (PLS) is being deployed as the primary component of the maneuver-oriented ammunition distribution system (MOADS). It will perform line haul, local haul, unit resupply and other missions in the tactical environment to support modernized and highly mobile combat units.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The PLS consists of a 16 1/2-ton payload prime mover (10x10) with an integral load-handling system, which provides
self-loading and unloading capability; a 16 1/2-ton payload trailer; and demountable cargo beds, referred to as flatracks.
The PLS truck is equipped with the central tire inflation system, which significantly improves off-road mobility. PLS maintains interoperability with the comparable British, German, and French systems, through the use of a common flatrack,
as specified in the current quadripartite agreement. On the basis of direction provided by Congress in the FY90 Defense
Appropriation Bill, an intermodal flatrack (with features that enhance transportability and stacking) has completed design
and is in production (5,000 Ml Flatracks). A container lift kit also will be fielded to PLS trucks assigned to transportation and ammunition units and to forward support battalions. This provides PLS the capability to pick up and transport
20 ft ISO containers without using a flatrack. The self-propelled field artillery units will receive PLS trucks equipped with
a materiel-handling crane to deal with individual pallets of ammunition.

PROGRAM STATUS

The PLS is a non-developmental item program which has been executed through a five-year multi-year production contract awarded to Oshkosh Truck Corporation in September 1990. It entered low rate production in 1991 and was
approved to enter full production in April 1993. The PLS first unit equipped occurred in February 1994 with units from
the 1st Cavalry Division at Ft. Hood, TX. PLS fielding will continue through FY97.

PROJECTED ACTIVITIES:

TRADOC is currently performing an analysis of follow-on uses for the PLS. The study explores the benefits of using PLS
for the following missions: Corps distribution of other classes of supply, DEPMEDS Hospital and Medical Supplies,
Aviation Intermediate Maintenance Units in Division/Corps, and Engineer Bridging. The PMO is currently developing
tanker flatracks to transport water and fuel per Congressional direction and will soon begin the development of engineering application flatracks. The PLS will be used as the launcher for the Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD)
and as the transporter for the Heavy Dry Support Bridge (HDSB).

Integrated High Performance

Turbine Engine Technology
(IHPTET)
(1989-2003)

Family of Operational Rations

(FOR)

The IHPTET initiative is a DoD, NASA, and industry turbine engine technology program that embodies virtually all government-sponsored
research and development efforts devoted to advancing aircraft and missile
turbine engines. The goal of IHPTET is to double turbine engine propulsion capability by the turn of the century. It covers both military and commercial applications in three categories: (1) man-rated thrust (fixed wing),
(2) man-rated shaft (rotorcraft), and (3) expendable engines (missiles).
IHPTET advancements will result from the synergistic effect of combining
advanced material developments, innovative structural designs, improved
aerothermodynamics, and component integration. The Army's principal
contribution is in a 6.3 technology demonstrator called the Joint Turbine
Advanced Gas Generator (JTAGG). JTAGG II will reduce specific fuel consumption by 30% and improve power to weight ratio by 80% over the
T700 engine baseline by FY97 with additional improvements projected
out to 2003. The IHPTET initiative will guide development of new aircraft and missile turbine engine technology from component development to demonstration. In this manner, advanced components and technologies should be ready for transition to weapons systems at lower technical risk and cost, provide greatly improved engine performance, and continue the
civil and military excellence of the U.S. in aircraft and missile gas turbines. Supports: RAH-66 Comanche, AH-64 Apache
Improvement, Joint Transport Rotorcraft.

. .

,--

The FOR is a scenario-driven ration development program

that supports highly mobile and forward deployed troops
with innovative, highly acceptable components, suitable for
use in arctic, jungle, desert, mountain and urban areas under
all climatic conditions. The FOR represents technologically
advanced food systems that consist of mobility enhancing,
eat-out-of-hand components that represent an innovation to
field feeding. These unique components such as sandwiches, dessert snacks and multi-functional performance enhancing components allow for eat-on-the-move capability, while
providing high quality, familiar foods. Technology demon$jM slrations have provided extremely positive feedback from soll8
^" diets and will serve as the basis for developing future rations
to meet the requirements for Army Field Ration 2000.
Supports: DoD Joint Food Program.

Batteiy Technology Improved lithium-ion rechargeable batteries have been designed, under a DARPA-TRP, by the CECOM-RDEC in conjunction with a contractor, and as a result there is now a domestic manufacturing capability for these batteries. In addition the
first rechargeable lithium-ion battery (BB-284/U) is now being fielded to support the Thermal Weapons Sight. These new
rechargeable batteries have 2-3 times the energy density of nickel-cadmium batteries. In the field of primary batteries prototype lithium-manganese dioxide 5590-size batteries have been designed and fabricated in conjunction with a contractor,
and initial samples have 1.5-2 times the energy content of the current primary battery. Although it will take some time to
work out safety and low-temperature performance issues, these have high potential for use in the future.

Intelligent Vehicles The Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) technology development and demonstration program is an
OSD/DARPA sponsored research and demonstration effort for which the Army Research Laboratory has been
the technical manager. This program has been national in scope with the involvement of over 40 co-contractors drawn from academia, government laboratories and private industry. The continuing maturation of UGV
technologies utilizing semi-autonomous vehicle navigation technologies; as well as advanced reconnaissance,
surveillance, and target acquisition (RSTA); and new automated mission planning communication techniques;
will provide novel tactical and support options to the future warfighter. Intelligent vehicles will give the commander the ability to multiply his force and conduct continuous combat operations. They will also generate a
new capability for him to detect and target enemy forces throughout the entire battlefield. Multiple UGV-based
observation platforms will provide commanders a better overview of the battlefield situation as part of the
Army's Battlefield Digitization efforts. A Demo II phase of this effort was successfully concluded in June 1996
with an extensive series of field exercises coordinated with TRADOC at Fort Hood culminating in a Battle Lab
Warfighting Experiment conducted by Fort Knox's Mounted Maneuver Battlespace Laboratory. Three intelligent UGVs were successfully integrated into field exercises at Fort Hood, were controlled by III Corps troops,
and performed mission efforts in forward observer, maneuver on urban terrain (MOUT), reconnaissance, and
security. Earlier in the program as a prelude to Demo II, a soldier controlled semi-autonomous UGV was integrated into actual Brigade-level Armored Cavalry field exercises at Fort Hood. These exercises demonstrated
the potential of semi-autonomous UGVs to act as force multipliers for combat missions and their ability to
extend stand-off ranges for soldiers in high risk missions. Key technologies developed during this program
include: intelligent vehicle architecture, autonomous navigation, reconnaissance, surveillance, and target
acquisition (RSTA), passive stereo for mobility and perception, and advanced planning tools to support tactical deployment of intelligent vehicles. The Next Generation UGV program, currently being formulated by
OSD and the Army for 1997-2001, will focus on technologies providing higher speed maneuver for day/night
and adverse weather operations, UGV survivability, and the effective interface of UGV derived data into the digital battlefield.
Joint Logistics ACTD (Phase I) The Joint Logistics Advanced Concept Technology
'Demonstration (JL-ACTD) Phase I, also known as
Logistic Anchor Desk (LAD) provides operational
users such as CINCs and JTF Commanders with
increased capability to rapidly plan and execute more
responsive and efficient logistics support to military
operations. A prototype network of workstations
connect operational planners and logisticians across
military services and command echelons, enabling a
better understanding of the impact of information
technology to increase the effectiveness and efficiency
of military logistics for a twenty-first century force.
The focus of LAD is decision support tools with core functionalities that include advanced data distribution
and visualization techniques to provide a common, relevant logistics picture. Integration of existing logistics
analysis models with knowledge-based tools provide powerful decision support to leaders. This capability is a
plus to the total asset visibility effort. In October 1995, senior logisticians in Europe requested LAD support
for the Operation Joint Endeavor crisis action planning underway for deployment into Bosnia, Since then LAD
sites have been providing increased operational capabilities to senior logisticians and their staffs over a variety
of operational issues in EUCOM, USACOM, CENTCOM and supporting sites.

Army forces require improved protection against a wide variety of threats on the future battlefield. The. threat posed
by the growing proliferation of tactical ballistic missiles (TBMs) and nuclear, chemical and biological (NBC)
weapon technology has drawn the greatest attention. The Army is investing in a mix of active and passive defense systems to deal with the
TBM/NBC threat. Patriot, THAAD and MMDS are the core of Army active defense systems, which will protect the force against TBMs and other
airborne threats such as cruise missiles and aircraft. Passive defense, centers around systems that can detect or offer passive protection against
nuclear, chemical and biological agents. This includes detection systems like the NBC Reconnaissance System - Fox and the Biological
Integrated Detection System (BIDS). It also includes items like the M40 series protective mask and the Advanced Integrated Collective
Protection System that offer soldiers protection from dangerous airborne agents.
The Army is also concerned about the dangers posed by advanced conventional weapons and by fratricide. To counter the former, the Army is
developing lighter and stronger ballistic protection for the individual soldier as part of the Soldier System program. The Army is also acquiring
new vehicle, mounted smoke generators to improve the capability to conceal moving forces and high value targets. To reduce fratricide the Army
is pursuing two options. The. Battlefield Combat Identification System (BCIS) will provide an interrogation/response system for Arm)' weapons
platforms that will allow them to accurately and instantly identify friendly forces; the digitization program for Army forces will provide pilots and
vehicle commanders with total simalional awareness that will allow them to locate, friendly vehicles and distinguish them from hostile targets.

PRODUCTION AND DEPLOYMENT

MISSION:

The Chemical Agent Monitor (CAM) and the Improved CAM (ICAM) provide a means of quickly locating the presence
of (or lack of) nerve and mustard agent contamination on personnel and equipment.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The CAM is a hand-held device used to quickly find nerve and mustard agent contamination on people and equipment.
It is used by troops in full protective clothing, after an attack or after going through a contaminated area. It provides fast
low level detection of both nerve and mustard vapors, differentiates between nerve and mustard agents, provides an indication of the relative magnitude of the hazard present, and is not affected by most common battlefield interferences. The
CAM provides information not previously available about the chemical hazard and provides it in seconds for both nerve
and mustard. Use of the CAM on a chemical battlefield reduces the risk a commander may have to take in reducing the
level of mission oriented protective posture in a combat situation. The CAM gives a commander the ability to quickly
monitor for contamination, allowing soldiers and equipment to remain engaged in their combat missions and reduces the
need for decontamination. The CAM is also used to check the effectiveness of decontamination operations on people and
equipment. The ICAM differs from the CAM in that it is more reliable and much less costly to operate and repair.

FOREIGN COUNTERPART:

France: AP2C

FOREIGN MILITARY SALES:

CAM is a foreign-developed item (U.K.), therefore foreign military sales are restricted by a license agreement. Sales are

Each component is based on state-of-the-art material technologies that have undergone extensive user evaluation and field and laboratory testing. Through unique system and component design features, individual users can select any combination of
JSLIST components to form a mission-tailored protective system. This system will provide the highest level of protection
against current CB threats while reducing heat strain, weight, and bulk to an absolute minimum. User performance is
optimized by balancing CB protection and heat strain management with service-defined mission requirements. Although
the main thrust of JSLIST is to develop the next generation CB protective system, considerable focus also continues on
ensuring full compatibility and integration with equipment such as developmental masks and body armor and developmental systems such as Land Warrior, Air Warrior, and Mounted Warrior. Under management of the four Service Program
managers, JSLIST has joint participation in every aspect of the program from management, system planning, system and
component design, material selection, test execution, and data assessment. The program structure and approval process
have been configured to assure full user participation so that common and service unique requirements are met.

PROGRAM STATUS:

Phase I preliminary wear tests, material tests (chemical, physical properties, and heat stress) and design of suits resulted
in down selection of materials and garment designs to continue into Phase II. Phase II included extensive field DT/OT
testing at diverse environmental sites and various user facilities as well as uniquely developed standardized chemical agent
swatch, heat stress, aerosol, man-in stimulant system, and FR tests. A critical design review has been conducted to determine any modifications that may need to be made to ensure JSLIST system provides the best ensemble for CB protection.

PROJECTED ACTIVITIES:

Based on extensive testing and preliminary evaluations, minor modification are being made to JSLIST components and
additional testing is being scheduled to ensure that modifications provide desired results. An MSIII-type classification is
scheduled for 2QFY97 with initial production of garments in FY97. The JSLIST P3I program will structure an iterative
process that will allow for periodic technology insertion of tested approved materials into the JSLIST production cycle.

JTAGS is a Program Executive Office Missile Defense, ACAT III managed program, and is a joint interest effort with the
Navy. The Program has transitioned from a Ballistic Missile Defense Organization/U.S. Army Space and Strategic Defense
Command Advanced Technology Demonstration to an Army funded formal acquisition program. The technical feasibility of JTAGS was validated by the Tactical Surveillance Demonstration proof-of-principle prototype, which was successfully tested at White Sands Missile Range. A transportable prototype was delivered during FY93 and underwent developmental and operational testing during 4QFY93 and 1QFY94. Both prototypes are currently deployed supporting
EUCOM and PACOM respectively. A successful MS II IPR decision was held on 6 May 1994 which approved entry into
Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD). The EMD contract with production options was awarded on 8 July
1994. The two EMD units were delivered 3QFY95 and underwent extensive technical and operational testing. The program was approved to enter production following a successful 26 February 1996 MS III decision review.

Production units to be fielded in FY97. Phase I of a two-phased product improvement program will also begin in FY97,
ending in FY99. Phase I will enhance joint communications and the system's ability to predict both the launch and impact
points of tactical ballistic missiles. Phase II, scheduled from FY99-FY04, will enable JTAGS to be compatible with the next
generation of space-based infrared satellites. This will enable JTAGS' early warning capability to remain viable well into
the 21st century.

CONCEPT

MISSION:

Medium Extended Air Defense System (MEADS) will provide low-to-medium air and theater missile defense to the
maneuver forces and other critical forward deployed assets throughout all phase of tactical operations. It will operate both
in an enclave with upper tier systems in areas of debarkation and assembly and alone or with Forward Area Air Defense
System in the division area of the battlefield during movement to contact and decisive operations.

CHARACTERISTICS:

MEADS will provide air and missile defense of vital corps and division assets associated with the Army and Marine Corps
maneuver forces. MEADS will utilize a combination of a netted and distributed architecture, modularly configurable battle elements, interoperability with other airborne and ground based sensors, and improved seeker/sensor components to
provide a robust defense against the full spectrum of TBM, cruise missile, unmanned aerial vehicle, TASM, rotary wing,
and forward wing threats. MEADS will be designed to provide: 1) defense against multiple and simultaneous attacks by
SRBMs, low cross-section cruise missiles, and other air-breathing threats to the force; 2) immediate deployment for early
entry operations with as few as six C-141 sorties; 3) mobility to move rapidly and protect maneuver force assets during
offensive operations; 4) a distributed architecture and modular components to increase survivability and flexibility of
employment in a number of operational configurations; and 5) a significant increase in firepower while greatly reducing
manpower and logistics requirements. Given these characteristics, MEADS can rapidly respond to a variety of crisis situations and satisfy the needs of the joint operational and tactical commanders.

FOREIGN COUNTERPART:
FOREIGN MILITARY SALES:

PROGRAM STATUS:

Concurrent with the U. S. MEADS requirements and concepts, discussions with German (GE) government and industry
confirmed similar operational/technical requirements which provided an opportunity for cooperation. Discussions were
later expanded to include France (FR) and Italy (IT). On 20 Feb 95 representatives of U.S., GE, FR, and IT signed a
Statement of Intent (SOI) to cooperate on the development and production of the MEADS. This cooperation was based
on the U.S. providing 50% of funding and receiving 50% of the workshare. However, France later decided not to participate in the program. Thus, the U. S., GE, and IT signed a 1 May 96 Memorandum of Understanding formally initiating the program's first phase, known as Project Definition and Validation (PD-V). New cost/work share ratios are
60%/25%/15% for the U. S./GE/IT respectively. MEADS will be managed by the NATO MEADS Management Agency, a
NATO-chartered agency located in Huntsville, Alabama. During PD-V, two competing international teams will define
total system concepts, establish system and prime item specifications, demonstrate critical functions, develop digital
end-to-end simulations, and establish integrated program plans and cost estimate for the Design and Development and
Production Phases.

PROJECTED ACTIVITIES:

Downselect to one international team in the late FY98-early FY99 timeframe for the Design and Development phase, currently scheduled to begin 2QFY99.

PRIME CONTRACTOR:

MEADS will have two international contractor teams competing during the PD-V Phase: 1) MEADS Inc. (consortium
consisting of U.S. contractor Hughes and Raytheon Co (joint venture), and European contractors Deutsch Aerospace
(Germany), Siemens (Germany), and Alenia (Italy), and 2) MEADS International Inc. (consortium consisting of U.S. contractor Lockheed Martin Integrated Systems and the same three international contractors).

MISSION:
CHARACTERISTICS:

To protect the United States against limited long range ballistic missile (ICBM/SLBM) attacks.
The National Missile Defense (NMD) system will intemperate with external Early Warning (EW) sensors (DSP/SBIRS and
EW Radars) and the United States Space Command (USSPACECOM) Command and Control Center via CINC Battle
Management Command Control and Communications (BMC3). The Army elements of the NMD System include groundbased exoatmospheric hit-to-kill interceptors, a ground-based, phased array, national defense radar (for surveillance, track,
object classification and kill assessment) and site BMC3 (for human-in-control, engagement planning, top level decision
making and system communications). For an effective early capability to protect all 50 states prior to SBIRS-Low availability, advanced and upgraded EW radars may be required.
An NMD engagement is initiated based on early warning sensors detecting and designating hostile ballistic missile launches toward the U.S. and transmitting the tracking data through the CINC BMC3 to the site BMC3. Using data from surveillance and tracking systems including the ground-based radar, the site BMC3 aids the operators in identifying the hostile reentry vehicles and planning the engagement. After launch and burning of the booster, a kill vehicle separates and
repositions itself pointing the seeker field-of-view to the predicted target position. The on-board computer receives additional target updates from the site BMC3 based on surveillance data and executes intercept course correction maneuvers.
Once uncapped, the on-board passive seeker searches and acquires the target and any associated objects in its field-of-view.
The target is designated using a combination of target object map, provided by the site BMC3 based on radar and EW sensor data, and on-board target selection capabilities. After target designation, the kill vehicle tracks the target executing "end
game" maneuvers to achieve a direct impact kill. The intercept is monitored by the radar and EW sensors for kill assessment or further battle management action, if required.

PROGRAM STATUS

The NMD Program has been elevated from a technology effort to a Deployment Readiness (or 3+3) Program and has been
designated as a Major Defense Acquisition Program. The Army is supporting Ballistic Missile Defense Organization in the
execution of the NMD Program. The goal of the program is to develop and test the elements of the initial ground-based
NMD system within the next three years that could be deployed within an additional three years, if dictated by the threat.
The Army's efforts are focused on developing and demonstrating the Ground Based Interceptor, the Ground Based Radar,
and the Site BM/C3. The baseline program will demonstrate the integrated performance of the initial NMD elements by
the end of FY99.

MISSION:

The PATRIOT Missile System provides high- and medium-altitude defense against aircraft and tactical ballistic missiles to
critical assets and maneuver forces belonging to the corps and to echelons above corps. The PATRIOT Advanced
Capability-3 (PAC-3) system upgrade, along with the PAC-3 missile, will provide an advanced anti-tactical missile capability to the current fielded system.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The combat element of the PATRIOT Missile System is the fire unit, which consists of a Radar Set (RS), an Engagement
Control Station (ECS), an Electric Power Plant (EPP), an Antenna Mast Group (AMG), and eight remotely located
Launching Stations (LS). The RS provides all tactical functions of airspace surveillance, target detection and tracking, and
missile guidance. The ECS provides the human interface for command and control of operations. Currently, each launcher contains four ready-to-fire missiles, sealed in canisters which serve a dual purpose as shipping containers and launch
tubes. PATRIOT'S fast reaction capability, high firepower, ability to track 50 targets simultaneously, and the ability to operate in a severe electronic countermeasures environment are features not available in previous air defense systems. The
PAC-3 upgrade program will incorporate significant upgrades to the RS, ECS, and will include up to 16 advanced hit-tokill missiles into three to four of the eight launchers per firing battery, thus increasing fire power and ballistic missile
defense capabilities. The primary mission of the PAC-3 missile is to kill both maneuvering and non-maneuvering tactical
ballistic missiles. The PAC-3 missile will also have a capability to counter cruise missiles and aircraft.

The family of chemical, biological and radiological protective masks (M40 Series) provides respiratory, eye, and face protection against chemical and biological agents, toxins, radioactive particles and battlefield contaminants. These masks are
issued to every soldier, the M42A2 to armored crews, M45 to rotary wing crew, and the M40A1 to the balance of the force
and AMC Surety Sites. The M41 Protection Assessment Test System (PATS) checks out the readiness of a protective mask
while worn by an individual. It also can be used to screen for unserviceable masks and assists in training personnel on
the proper wearing and fitting of the mask.
The M40A1, M42A2 and M45 masks have a silicone rubber facepiece with an in-turned peripheral faceseal and binocular rigid lens system. The basic mask, the M40A1, replaces all previously fielded masks. It includes a face-mounted
canister with NATO standard threads (gas and aerosol filter) which can be worn on either the right or left cheek and
includes a drink tube, and clear and tinted lens outserts. When the canister is attached to a connection hose and
equipped with a canister harness, larger mask carrier, and a microphone, the mask becomes the M42A2 which is used
by all combat vehicle crew personnel. The interchangeability has also permitted the repair of masks using a facepiece
assembly, while retaining other existing, undamaged parts instead of a total replacement a significant cost and time savings. The M45 is designed with close-fitting eye lenses, and interchangeable nose cups, to permit fitting an increased
range of soldiers. This unique design permits operation of aircraft sighting systems and night vision devices without
the aid of forced ventilation air. The PATS now permits verification that the fit of the mask to the soldiers face is
acceptable and that there are no critical leaks in the mask system.

MISSION:

The Sentinel is used with the Army's Forward Area Air Defense (FAAD) C2 system to provide critical air surveillance of
the forward areas. It automatically detects, tracks, classifies, identifies, and reports targets (cruise missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, rotary wing and fixed wing aircraft) to Air Defense Weapons Systems located in the Forward Area.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The Sentinel consists of a radar-based sensor system with its prime mover/power, Identification Friend or Foe (IFF), and
FAAD Command and Control Intelligence (C2I) interfaces. The sensor is an advanced three dimensional battlefield Xband air defense phased-array radar with an instrumented range of 40 km. The Sentinel is capable of operating day or
night, in adverse weather conditions, in the battlefield environments of dust, smoke, aerosols, and enemy countermeasures. It provides 360 degree azimuth coverage for acquisition and tracking. The Sentinel contributes to the digital battlefield by automatically detecting, tracking, classifying, identifying, and reporting targets (cruise missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, rotary wing, and fixed wing aircraft). Targets can be hovering to fast moving, as well as, from nap of the earth
to the maximum engagement altitude of FAAD weapons. Very accurate and quick reacting, Sentinel acquires targets sufficiently forward of the Forward Line of Own Troops (FLOT) to improve FAAD weapon reaction time and allow engagement at optimum ranges. The Sentinel integrated IFF reduces the potential for fratricide of Army Aviation and Air Force
aircraft. Highly mobile and reliable, the Sentinel Anti-Radiation Missile and Electronic Counter-Measures resistant performance support Army Corps and Divisional Air Defense operations across the full spectrum of conflict. Sentinel uses a
HMMWV as its prime mover. It is transportable without disassembly in USAF C-130, C-141, C-17 and C-5 aircraft and
U.S. Army CH-47 helicopters. It is designed to be transported as external cargo (sling load) by U.S. Army UH-60 aircraft.
The Sentinel is capable of being march-ordered and emplaced by two soldiers. The system is capable of normal operation
while attended by one soldier and will not require continuous operator attention to perform normal operations.

20.3 hp/ton ratio at a combat loaded weight of 27,000 pounds. This is sufficient to maintain mobility with the Ml and
M2/M3 vehicles the M58 supports. The smoke generator system provides up to 90 minutes of visual and 30 minutes of
infrared obscuring screens. A 30-minute millimeter wave obscuring capability will be added as a product improvement
The system includes the Driver's Thermal Viewer that allows it to see through its own smoke clouds and a Gas Particle
Filter Unit for operating in an NBC-contaminated environment. A crew of three will operate the M58 system.

MISSION:
CHARACTERISTICS:

The soldier system's mission is to provide the soldier with everything he wears, carries, and consumes in combat.
The soldier system includes improved individual equipment, weapons, clothing, C4I, and subsistence items, to enhance
his overall effectiveness and survivability on the battlefield. Soldier system items include several related programs that
respond to changing threat requirements and advances in state-of-the-art technology.
Soldier Modernization provides a cohesive plan for the coordinated development of soldier system items and is the
roadmap for near-term, mid-term, and far-term efforts. In the near term, one key element of the soldier support and modernization process is the Soldier Enhancement Program (SEP). SEP projects are primarily modified non-developmental
items and are focused in four general areas: weapons and munitions, combat clothing and individual equipment (CIE),
communications and navigation aids, and food/water and shelter. SEP projects include Shin/Knee Guards for Riot Control;
Pistol Belt Extender; Extreme Cold Weather Boot; Ballistic/non-Ballistic Face and Body Shield; Fuel Bar; improved Physical
Fitness Uniform; Small Unit Showers; Lightweight Video Reconnaissance System; Individual Soldier Radio; Heavy Sniper
Weapon System; M4 Improved Butt Stock; Non-lethal 40 mm, 5.56 mm, and 12 Gauge Munitions; selectable Lightweight
Attack Munitions and Armor Crew/infantry Protective Mask XM45 to name a few. Mid-term research and development
CIE efforts are focused on the design of lighter-weight equipment, ballistic and laser eye protection, and improved chemical protective clothing that takes advantage of the latest technology and advanced materials. These efforts concentrate on
Self-Contained Toxic Environmental Protective Outfit (STEPO), Joint Service Lightweight Integrated Chemical Suit
Technology (JSLIST), and improved laser eye protection. Other key elements include the Land Warrior (LW), Air Warrior
(AW), and Mounted Warrior (MW) systems. LW is a first generation integrated fighting system for dismounted combat
soldiers. It enhances soldiers' battlefield capabilities through the development and integration of Army components and
technologies into a cohesive, timely, and cost-effective system. LW subsystems include an individual soldier radio/computer, with embedded global positioning system (GPS), and communications system; enhancements to CIE; integrated
headgear with heads-up display and image intensifier; improved chemical/biological mask; and modular weapon system
with thermal sight, infrared laser aiming light, and laser rangefinder/digital compass. Far- term efforts include the Force
XXI Land Warrior, Objective Individual Combat Weapon (OICW) and other programs which pursue advance technology at the component level for insertion into Land Warrior. Emphasis will be on those areas that provide substantial operational benefits such as OICW or enhanced radio/GPS or integration of components to achieve weight savings for the soldier. Similar efforts have been started for mounted and air crew personnel. AW and MW efforts are being defined.

PROGRAM STATUS:

There are approximately 100-125 projects per year in various stages of R&D for the Soldier System (CIE/SEP/Land
Warrior). Land Warrior (LW), an Army Acquisition Category III program, awarded an R&D contract to Hughes Aircraft
Co. on 11 July 1995. Mounted Warrior MNS was approved 10 April 1995. Air Warrior MNS was approved 17 July 1995.

PROJECTED ACTIVITIES:

It is projected CIE/SEP, will have over twenty new starts in FY 97 and as many as 24 new items will be proposed for adoption in FY 97. Land Warrior is scheduled for Early Operational Evaluation in the first quarter of FY 97. Mounted Warrior
is currently funded in the POM starting in FY 98.

PRIME CONTRACTOR:

The overarching objective of the Tactical High Energy Laser (THEL) Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration
(ACTD) is to evaluate the effectiveness of a THEL in negating the threat posed by Katyusha and other short-range
artillery rockets. The THEL ACTD Demonstrator mission provides for early operational assessment of the acquisition
and close-in engagement problems associated with the evolving air threat of short to medium range targets within the
Air Defense Architectures, which will significantly enhance the defensive coverage to combat forces and theater level
assets.
The THEL ACTD demonstrator will be a deuterium fluoride chemical laser with a minimum of 60 seconds of continuous total run time. The Pointer Tracker/Beam Control system will be capable of providing + 200 degree coverage in
azimuth and -5 to 95 degrees coverage in elevation, and have the ability to accept cueing from external sensors in existing air defense architectures. The demonstrator, including the laser device, pointer tracker, support equipment and
command, control, communication, and intelligence subsystems, will consist of modules enclosed in standard shipping
containers that are road transportable and air transportable. The THEL demonstrator will also be configured for field
setup and testing at the High Energy Laser Systems Test Facility and remote locations in Israel, and demonstrate equivalent system performance to ACTD phase one criteria at Capistrano Test Site (CTS), Capistrano, CA.

On 29 April 1996, then Prime Minister of Israel, Shimon Peres, met with President Clinton and Secretary of Defense
Perry During the meeting, the U.S. made a commitment to assist Israel in the development of a THEL demonstrator for
the ultimate purpose of defeating the threat posed by Katyusha and other short range rockets against the cities in northern Israel. By memorandum dated 11 May 1996, Secretary of Defense Perry established the THEL ACTD program The
Secretary of Defense established the end of 1997 as the completion date for the THEL ACTD. The Department of
Defense and the Israeli Ministry of Defense executed a Memorandum of Agreement on 18 July 1996 which delineates
the THEL program. The MOA provides for performance of the ACTD, in principle, during calendar years 1996-1997
On 12 Sept 1996 a memorandum was generated by Assistant Secretaiy of the Army, Gilbert E Decker to the Deputy
Under Secretary of Defense recommending the completion date of 31 Mar 1998 for the THEL ACTD Program On 2224 July 1996 the Concept Design Review was held establishing requirements for the follow on Detailed Engineering

MISSION:

The Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system will fill the void of a large area defense of tactical ballistic missile threats, including weapons of mass destruction, operating in the endo- and exo-atmosphere and directed against military forces and strategic geopolitical assets.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The THAAD system is a Theater Missile Defense (TMD) weapon system designed to intercept short- and intermediaterange missile threats that will employ increasingly sophisticated warhead technologies. The THAAD system will augment
existing and other planned TMD capabilities by engaging threat missiles at higher altitudes and at longer ranges. This
intercept capability negates the threat use of weapons of mass destruction. THAAD's hit-to-kill guidance approach provides a high degree of lethality compared to existing systems with fragmentation warheads.
The THAAD system consists of missiles, launchers, Battle Management/Command, Control, Communication, Computers,
and Intelligence (BM/C4I) elements, radars, and support equipment. The missile is a hypervelocity, single stage, solid propellant booster and a unique endoVexo-atmospheric kill vehicle (KV). The hit-to-kill technology KV, designed to destroy
threat warheads, guides to target using an infrared homing seeker. The launcher utilizes the Army standard Palletized
Loading System (PLS) 16-ton truck with a capacity of at least 8 missile rounds on a missile pack. The HMMWV based
BM/C4I centers are a set of highly robust and configurable shelters to ensure maximum flexibility on the modern battlefield. These units interface and coordinate with the Theater Air Defense C2 system and will control both the Engagement
and Force Operations for the THAAD system. The BM/C4I will provide automated acquisition and identification of TBM
threats, process and disseminate track data, assign weapons, monitor engagements, and guide sensor operations. The
THAAD X-band phased array radar acquires the target at long ranges, tracks the target and provides in-flight updates to
the THAAD interceptor prior to intercept. The radar also performs kill assessment to support the decision to commit additional interceptors or to cue lower tier systems such as the Patriot System. The THAAD System will support passive
defense and attack operations by providing impact point predictions and launch point estimations. The THAAD system
will be fully transportable by C141/C5/C17 military aircraft. Once in theater, the system will utilize Army standard movers
to be highly mobile on highways and unimproved roads. These system capabilities will allow THAAD to be rapidly
deployed to any theater on short notice. Current plans call for a User Operational Evaluation System to be available in
1998 to gain user input into the final system design and to provide a Commander In Chief with a prototype system to use
in the case of an emergency.

Biological Aerosol Warning System

This ATD will demonstrate point detection and remote early warning of biological
agents. The ATD will focus on point biosensors that will incorporate automated DNA
technology to increase reliability, stability, sensitivity and response time. This ATD will
also demonstrate a remote biological aerosol warning capability using small, microultraviolet laser-based, fluorescent particle counters. The key to the ATD is to demonstrate the technologies in a unified effort in a battlefield exercise providing detection
and warning of biological agents before forces are affected, thus reducing casualties.

This ACTD is aimed at solving the combat identification problem underscored by the lessons learned from Operation Desert
Storm. The effort will build upon the Battlefield Combat Identification System (BC1S), which is a millimeter wave question
and answer, target ID system developed for ground vehicle platforms. The ACTD will validate the architecture for, and
demonstrate an affordable, integrated ground-to-ground and air-to-ground combat ID capability. An enhanced version of
BCIS with digital data link for improved situation awareness and various air-to-ground concepts including direct sensing
target ID, "don't shoot me" communications nets and situation awareness through the commander's and gunner's sight will
be demonstrated in the Force XXI exercise and the All Service Combat Identification Evaluation Test field exercise in FY 97.
Concepts will be evaluated for lightweight combat identification for the dismounted soldier within battlelab warfighting

. Advanced Technology. The Commander, U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC) is the Army
Medical Commands chief technology officer. He is responsible for enhancing battlefield medical care by adapting new
technologies that will significantly reduce deaths on the battlefield through the projection of life-saving medical expertise
to the front lines. These technologies will enhance the delivery of care at each echelon of the field medical care system
by providing vastly enhanced communication links for
diagnostic consultation between deployed physicians and
specialty experts in the United States.
The USAMRMC's Medical Advanced Technology
Management Office (MATMO) has coordinated deployments of telemedicine technology in support of US forces
in Macedonia, Croatia and Haiti. This technology has been
incorporated into Advanced Warfighter Experiment
(AWE) Demonstrations of the Army's digitized battlefield
for the 21st century. Advances in Army medicine have
thus been fully integrated into the broader Army vision of
a digital future.

2. Infectious Diseases. The first vaccine for hepatitis A was recently licensed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Medical researchers assigned to the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command s Walter Reed Army Institute of
Research conducted the large-scale clinical trials that made licensure possible. Army participation in the lengthy process
of approving the new vaccine helps to insure the availability of the promising new product for future soldiers deploying
to areas of the world in which hepatitis A is an endemic disease threat.
Researchers at the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) at Fort Detrick, MD, while
continuing to develop improved medical countermeWes to classical biological warfare agents, have increased their
efforts in global surveillance of new and emerging infectious diseases. Recent outbreaks of Hanta virus in the United
States and Ebola virus in Zaire have served to remind military and civilian medical communities of the importance of disease surveillance. USAMRIID scientists collaborate on a continuing basis with colleagues at the World Health
Organization, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and other agencies in monitoring emerging threats.
USAMRIID is also involved in basic research efforts to develop preventative products to protect military personnel from
these new threats.
3. Combat Casualty Care. Pilot lot production of purified hemoglobin for blood substitute research has resumed at the
Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. The production facility was temporarily mothballed during the relocation of the
blood research program from the Letterman Army Institute of Research. Research also continues on cell cultures in microgravity, using the Space Shuttle as a platform. These studies hold promise for future advances in wound healing.
Both the Combat Casualty Care Research Program and the Operational Medicine Research Programs have established
closer ties to the Soldier Systems Command, outlining medical interfaces with and medical components of the 21st
Century Land Warrior.
4. Persian Gulf Illness. The USAMRMC is investigating possible causes of Persian Gulf-related illnesses on several fronts.
The USAMRMC supported a toxicological study of three chemicals used in protective products during the Gulf War.
Deet, the active ingredient in the Army's insect repellent; permethrin, a pesticide applied to military uniforms which supplements the repellent formulation applied to the skin; and pyridostigmine bromide, a drug used as a pretreatment for
protection from chemical warfare agents, were studied in the test. The purpose of the toxicological study was to assess
the toxicity of the three chemicals individually, and in combination. The study establishes that there is some synergy, or
enhanced toxicity of the products when combined, but at exposure levels far above those resulting from normal, recommended use.
The USAMRMC has published requests for proposals for research on Persian Gulf Illnesses, as a result of a Congressional
appropriation of $5 million for research on these illnesses. The USAMRMC is managing the research, which will be conducted by non-federal agencies. Proposals will be peer-reviewed by expert panels, and research grants will be awarded
based on the merits of the proposals.
5. Special Interest Programs. The USAMRMC continues to manage Congressionally-mandated research programs in breast
cancer and women s health. The Breast Cancer Research Program awarded approximately 750 grants and contracts with
FY 1993, FY 1994, and FY 1995 funds. Proposals are now being evaluated for additional research to be supported by a
fourth appropriation for breast cancer research from the 1996 budget.
The Defense Women s Health Research Program investigates health problems commonly encountered by military women.
Appropriations of $40 million from the FY 94 and 95 budgets are supporting a variety of in-house military and contractor research efforts. This program is consistent with a trend in civilian medical research to balance the traditional focus
of medical research on male subjects by directing more research at women and women's health issues.

and medium or heavy armored vehicles to support combat maneuver and rear area logistics/operations other than war missions. The system will automatically detect, classify, and geolocate metallic and non-metallic mines. The position/location
information will be used to direct a neutralize!- to the individual mine. This classification and location data will also be communicated to other tactical units. Standoff detection sensors that will be demonstrated include infrared (1R) and forward
looking radar. Standoff neutralization devices to be evaluated are kinetic energy projectiles, shaped charge explosives and
emerging directed energy beams. Supports: Joint Countermine ACTD, Ground Stand-off Mine
Detection System, Breacher P3I
The Multispectral Countermeasures ATD will demonstrate advancements in laser technology, energy transmission, and jamming techniques for an all laser solution to infrared countermeasures and provide the
technology baseline for product improvements to the
Advanced Threat Infrared Countermeasure/Common
Missile Warning System (ATIRCM/CMWS). These
technologies will provide the capability to counter
both present and future imaging focal plane array and
non-imaging missile seekers. A tunable multiline
laser with a fiber optic transmission line, advanced
jamming algorithms will be live fire tested using the
ATIRCM as a testbed. The goal is a 3X reduction in
laser jam head volume, a 35 pound weight reduction,
a 2X reduction in ATIRCM/CMWS power consumption, and a 4X increase in jammer power. Supports:
Tri-Service ATIRCM/CMWS

The NBC defense science and technology program includes technologies for individual physical and medical protection collective protection, decontamination and contamination avoidance. Individual protective technologies will offer increased
respiratory protection against current and emerging NBC threats while providing improved weapons systems and minimiz,ng the physiological burden imposed by NBC protective equipment. Individual protective equipment also includes
advanced materials for clothing which will provide enhanced protection and reduced heat stress. Medical chemical-biological defenses will provide new pretreatments for nerve agents, topical skin protectants for vesicants, new vaccines for biological threats, and novel therapies for chemical and biological threats.
Improved casualty care practices doctrine will increase the return-to-duty rate, thus adding to force sustainment Collective
protection technologies will investigate continuous, regenerable filtration requiring minimal logistics. New decontamination technologies will minimize logistics burden, reduce contamination impact on mission effectiveness and have low environmental impact. The emphasis on the contamination avoidance component of NBC defense includes technologies for
multiagent sensor, point detection and remote early warning for real-time detection and identification of chemical and biological agents. In addition, detectors will be more compact, so they may be placed on a variety of platforms and will not
have large space and power requirements.

nformation is power. On the battlefield, information is deadly power. The Army approach to information warfare
emphasizes both offense and defense. The Army of tomorrow will deny information to the enemy through secure
communications and direct attack against enemy Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C4I) assets. The Army
in conjunction with the other services will also expand its own C4I assets. This will give all U.S. forces a complete picture of the battlefield and
securely transmit that picture to all units. As part of this effort, the Army is building the Army Battle Command System (ABCS), a seamless,
secure and adaptable information architecture that will link battle commanders at all echelons. Most of the systems listed in this section are
components of ABCS. Winning the Information War is about gathering as much information as possible on the enemy (e.g. numbers and types
of vehicles, units and command centers) and on your own forces and then moving that information to the soldiers that can act on it, be they a
transportation company or an armored battalion.
In order to build that complete picture of the theater, the Army must acquire a new range of information systems. The first elements to acquire
are the intelligence and sensor systems that will gather all the information about the enemy and about friendly forces as well. The
Guardrail/Common Sensor (GR/CS), the Ground Based Common Sensor (GBCS), the Tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UV), and Trackwolf
are a few of the systems that will gather the information. Other platforms like the Comanche helicopter will figure prominently in intelligence
gathering through an armed reconnaissance role. A subset of this category includes the systems that highlight information about friendly forces.
As an example, the NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers provide precise location data to soldiers for targeting and navigation.
The second element of a new information architecture are the communications systems needed to move data securely and rapidly from point
to point. In this category are systems like the Single Channel Ground Air Radio System (S1NCGARS), Digital Transmission Assemblages, Circuit
Switches/Message Switches, Mobile Subscriber Equipment (MSE) and Satellite Communications (SATCOM). These systems create a powerful
network that will permit the movement of large amounts of data from any source to any soldier.
The final element is the computer hardware and software that will process the raw data into usable products. The systems in the first two categories will greatly increase the amount of information available to every soldier in the field. New computer systems are needed to manage the
increased flow of information. Common Hardware and Software (CHS) and the Standard Army Management Information System (STAMIS) will
ensure that the Army Information architecture remains compatible and interchangeable. Advanced software systems, like the Army Data
Distribution System (ADDS), the Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS) and the All Source Analysis System (ASAS) will provide the means for analyzing and using the data. These are the systems that the soldiers will use to determine their next priority per the commander's intent.
The entire package of systems will create an Army that will be able to gain Information Dominance over any enemy Tomorrow's Army will have
unprecedented awareness of its own situation and needs and be able to acquire much more information about the enemy in terms of strength,
location and intent. Commanders will be able to move resources (be they supplies or combat units) to where they can have the greatest impact
on the battle. The Army seeks to provide its commanders and soldiers with total situational awareness, such that they will dominate the battlefield.

MISSION:

The Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS) is the automated command and controlsystem for the fire support ol the future. It provides the maneuver commander the capability to plan for and execute the attack on the right target
at the right time with the right munitions, and the right weapons system. It provides the maximum utilization of the fire support assets available on an expanding battlefield. The AFATDS will provide the multiservice (Army and Marine Corps) automated Fire Support Command, Control and Communications portion of the Army Battle Command System (ABCS) and support the close, deep and rear battle fire support requirements of Army doctrine. Additionally, AFATDS will interface with
Contingency Theater Automated Planning System (CTAPS) to pass air support requests to the Air Force and Navy.

CHARACTERISTICS:

AFATDS will provide integrated, automated support for planning, coordinating and controlling all fire support assets (field
artillery, mortars, close air support, naval gunfire, attack helicopter, and offensive electronic warfare) and for executing counter ire, interdiction, and suppression of enemy targets for close and deep operations. AFATDS uses non-developmental ruggedized, Common Hardware/Software used by the other ABCS Battlefield Functional Areas (BFAs). AFATDS uses the results of its
target value analysis to establish target priorities and select the best weapon system from field artillery (cannons and rockets)
mortars, naval gunfire, Air Force, Navy and Army attack helicopters and offensive electronic warfare. The AFATDS will receive
the Air Tasking Order from CTAPS and automatically process it for use in fire support operations. It also coordinates target
acquisition and sensor assets to provide targeting information and target damage assessment data. The software for AFATDS is
being developed in incremental fieldable versions such that each version provides additional capability/functionality with
AFATDS 00 (formerly Version 3) providing the objective system. AFATDS is designed to be fully interoperable with the other
ABCS BFAs as well as with the Fire Support capabilities of the Marine Corps, Navy and Air Force. AFATDS assets will be utilized at Echelon Above Corps levels.

MISSION:

The Army Data Distribution System (ADDS) functions to provide a tactical data distribution radio system in support of
the needs of the multitude of computers being fielded as part of the Army Tactical Command and Control System
(ATCCS), which is transitioning to the Army Battle Command System (ABCS), and other battlefield automated systems
to include those requirements associated with Force XXI programs.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The ADDS consists of three major products: the Enhanced Position Location Reporting System (EPLRS) for mediumspeed data distribution, the Joint Tactical Information Distribution System (JTIDS) for high-speed data distribution, and
the Near-Term Digital Radio (NTDR) which is planned to replace EPLRS. The NTDR is a Non-Developmental Item R&D
program that will meet Army data communication needs at Brigade and below. The program will create the Army communications data backbone from platoon to brigade for Task Force XXI. The ADDS uses Time Division Multiple Access
communications architecture to avoid transmission contention. Frequency hopping, error detection and correction with
interleaving, and spread spectrum technology provide jamming resistance. The EPLRS portion of ADDS provides data distribution and position/navigation services in near real time. EPLRS consists of a Network Control Station (NCS) and
EPLRS User Units (EPUUs). Up to 460 EPUUs can be controlled by a single NCS. The EPUU is a radio that can be configured as a Manpack Unit, a Surface Vehicle Unit, and an Airborne Vehicle Unit. The JTIDS portion of the ADDS program is a joint program representing all services and allied force requirements with the purpose of acquiring a digital information system for tactical interoperability and awareness which complies with the ASD (C3I) policy establishing Link16 as the DOD primary tactical data link for C2I. The primary use of the Class 2M terminals is to distribute air tracks to
net Air Defense Control Centers, and to control air and missile defense weapon engagement operations. The Class 2M
will be integrated into six Army platforms. The NTDR program will have an open system architecture and have five times

MISSION:

The Enhanced Trackwolf (ET) system is an Echelon Above Corps, ground-based, man-transportable, transit cased, high
frequency direction finding and intercept system.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The Enhanced Trackwolf is an evolutionary step from the Trackwolf Program, with greater transportability, capability, and
operational flexibility. The program was directed by Congress in FY93 as a result of DESERT SHIELD/DESERT STORM,
during which the current Trackwolf system proved too large and cumbersome for rapid deployment. In addition to transportability advantages from the current Trackwolf system, ET will incorporate advanced capabilities that will allow intercept of modern modulations. The system consists of three stations, each with nine positions, each configured as 1 DE 2
Management/Analysis, and 6 Collection functions. Set-up/tear-down times are less than four hours and each suite uses less
than 4000 watts of power. The architecture is designed to be an integration of proven technologies, with extensive use of
non-developmental hardware and software.

MISSION:

The Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (Joint STARS) Ground Station Module (GSM) provides long-range
radar and other sensor surveillance battle management and targeting data to tactical commanders.

CHARACTERISTICS:

Joint STARS is a joint Air Force/Army program. The airborne platform is a USAF E-8 (a militarized Boeing 707) with a
multimode radar (capable of wide area surveillance and synthetic aperture modes), 18 operation and control consoles, a
Surveillance and Control Data Link (SCDL), and secure communications. Orbiting a safe distance from the Forward Line
of Troops, Joint STARS radar scans a wide area of the battlefield at long ranges. The radar data are received by Air Force
and Army operators aboard the aircraft and then downlinked to multiple GSMs via the SCDL. The information provides
tactical air and ground commanders with near-real-time wide area surveillance and deep targeting data. The Joint STARS
system can detect, locate, track, classify, and assist in attacking both fixed and moving targets beyond the FLOT during
daylight and darkness in nearly all weather conditions.
The GSM is a mobile, tactical, multisensor ground station that receives, displays, processes, and disseminates targeting battle management and intelligence information to all echelons. In addition to Joint STARS radar data, the GSM is now capable of receiving and displaying Unmanned Aerial Vehicle imagery as well as signals intelligence data via an integrated Joint
Tactical Terminal. The GSM is being produced in two variants: a medium version (MGSM) mounted on a 5-ton truck and
a light version (LGSM) mounted on a High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). The Common Ground
Station (CGS) will be a light version mounted on a HMMWV. Beginning in FY96, the GSM will transition into the CGS
which will also be HMMWV mounted. The CGS will be a key node on the digitized battlefield, receiving multiple national, theater, and tactical sensor input.

MISSION:

The mission of NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS) is to provide accurate, continuous, all-weather, common grid,
worldwide navigation, positioning, and timing information to land, sea, air, and space-based users.

mmm

CHARACTERISTICS:

The NAVSTAR GPS is a joint Army, Navy, and Air Force program, with the Air Force as the lead service. GPS is a spacebased navigation, three-dimensional positioning, and time-distribution system. The GPS has three segments: a space segment, consisting of 24 satellites; a ground control segment; and a user segment. The Army is the lead service in the Joint
Program Office for the Ground User Segment with approximately 80% of total DoD requirements. The user segment consists of receiver configurations for ground, aircraft and seacraft applications. The GPS receiver is a passive device that will
be deployed extensively at all echelons and with Army aircraft.

mm

FOREIGN COUNTERPART:

The Russians have developed a similar system, GLONASS. Financed through European firms, GLONASS has matured to
21 spacecraft. GLONASS operates in a different portion of the same frequency band as NAVSTAR GPS, with slightly less
accuracy.

FOREIGN MILITARY SALES:

Coded FMS GPS Receivers are handled by the Air Force GPS Office through Joint coordination. Standard commercial GPS
receivers are a world open market resource.

PROGRAM STATUS:

The last Precision Lightweight GPS Receiver (PLGR) production option will be awarded in 2QFY97. The Army has
acquired 100,000 hand held units to date and worldwide fielding has been ongoing since October 1993 on an accelerated basis. The PLGR enhancement was awarded May 1995 and provides Army users with the following: 50% lower power
consumption, improved ease of use, automatic leg advance, updated datums, enhanced satellite vehicle selection for
reduced re-acquisition time, magnetic variation entry/display improvements, larger user defined screens, more routes and
legs, auto zeroized warning, and present position naming. As SLGRs are rapidly displaced by PLGRs, 1000 SLGRs will be
upgraded to Precise Positioning Service (PPS) accuracy and reallocated as inexpensive receivers for the non-modernized

PRODUCTION AND DEPLOYMENT

MISSION:

The mission of Satellite Communications (SATCOM) is to satisfy Joint Chiefs of Staff validated Command, Control,
Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) requirements supporting the President, National Command
Authority, Commanders in Chief (CINC), Military Departments, Intelligence community, and NATO. Satellite communications provide the CINC the reach-back capability between the forward deployed force and the CONUS sustaining base
required to support Army power projection.

CHARACTERISTICS:

Fixed strategic, theater, and mobile tactical satellite (TACSAT) communications terminals characterize SATCOM. The
satellite equipment uses all DoD SATCOM systems, including the Fleet Satellite/Air Force Satellite (FLTSAT/AFSAT) Ultra
High Frequency (UHF) system, UHF follow-on (UFO) system, and the Defense Satellite Communications System (DSCS)
Super High Frequency (SHF) X-Band.

PROGRAM STATUS:

The Army is procuring the AN/PSC-5 Spitfire UHF Manpack Terminal a/k/a EMUT and related equipment in support of
the Army, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Special Operations Forces unit requirements for use on FLTSAT/AFSAT/UFO. The
Spitfire has embedded Communications Security and demand assigned multiple access capability. For SHF TACSAT
Terminals, the Army acquired, tested, and fielded the AN/TSC-143 PrototypeTri-Band Terminal (PT3) to the 11th Signal
Brigade, Power Pac 3 Company. Additionally, Army is procuring the SHF TRI-BAND Advanced Range Extension Terminal
(STAR-T) which will be an SHF terminal mounted in a HMMWV and will eventually replace the AN/TSC-85B/93B Tactical
Satellite Terminals for the Army. These terminals will expand TACSAT capabilities because they are capable of using commercial C or Ku bands, or the existing DSCS X Band. For the strategic DSCS, the Army will continue to modernize its
heavy and medium fixed terminal facilities and transportable terminals, and modernize the light contingency terminals,
provide digital equipment upgrades, and expand the control subsystem to enhance satellite and communications payload
control operations. Contract awarded for four SOFTACS LRIP terminals in August 1996. STAR-T will be an option to

Rapid Battlefield Visualization
Advanced Concept Technology
Demonstration (ACTD):

Rapid Oattlofiold Visi

The Rapid Battlefield Visualization ACTD (RBV ACTD) will address the current inability of the Army to provide high resolution terrain databases and to integrate and
demonstrate capabilities to generate, disseminate, and exploit high resolution digital
terrain databases rapidly. The program will provide comprehensive visualization of the
battlefield to support crisis response and force projection operations over unmapped
areas. A test bed will be established with the XVIII Airborne Corps at Fort Bragg, North
^MtM*M
Carolina and will be incrementally upgraded and improved by integrating key
:;-
:;.:..' enabling technologies in a series of Army Warfighter Exercises. An objective capability will be delivered as a leave behind in the year 2000. The ACTD will address three
principle types of terrain data: digital terrain elevation data (DTED)- (2) digital feature data; and (3) orthorectified imagery. The objective timelines identified by the user to collect all three terrain data types
are: a 20 x 20 km area in 18 hours: 90 x 90 Km area in 72 hours; and a 300 x 300 Km area in 12 days. The approach to
the ACTD is to investigate six elements which will be integrated, evaluated and demonstrated: (1) rapid access to archived
data: (2) rapid collection of high resolution terrain elevation data and multi-spectral imagery using a tactically viable platform; (3) semi-automated extraction of terrain features; (4) rapid dissemination of databases over global broadcast- (5)
a hierarchical spatial database management system that will accommodate multiple scales, resolutions, and dynamic
updates; and (6) visualization workstations that will allow mission planning, rehearsal, course of action analysis and
embedded wargaming. The RBV ACTD is leveraging key enabling technologies from government and industry for the
above six elements.

Owning the Weather (OTW): The atmosphere affects nearly all Army systems, including the newer and more technologically advanced imagers, seekers, and munitions. Haze and fog can severely
degrade target recognition and acquisition devices, and dense fog can render them useless. Precipitation is a concern for trafficability, but it also degrades optical and infrared
devices and may incapacitate many radar systems. Chemical agents and obscurants
disperse according to wind direction and speed, turbulence and temperature. Wind is
a major factor affecting artillery accuracy, and as the range of artillery weapons
increase, so do the atmospheric effects. Commanders must plan for the impact on
weapon systems and optical/infrared devices in periods of adverse weather or limited
visibility.

Atmospheric Effects

OTW is the use of advance knowledge of the environment , and its effects on friendly and enemy soldiers equipment and
weapon systems, operations, and tactics, to gain decisive advantage over opponents. It involves a four step process for knowing, predating, and applying the weather: a) battlespace sensing and data collection; b) processing, forecasting analysis and
dissemination; c) battlefield visualization and decision aids; and d) combat weather exploitation and information operations
OTW will provide Force XXI an effective all-weather mission capability by giving the warfighter the information he needs to
ight and operate smart weapons and munitions under all weather conditions. A near-all-weather operational capability can
be achieved through the selection of the appropriate mix of battle sensors, weapon systems, and tactics that give friendly forces
the ability to see, maneuver, fight and win in all types of weather.
OTW provides the capability to anticipate the differential impacts of weather on friendly and threat capabilities allowing commanders to exploit windows of opportunity influenced by the weather. OTW technology and information systems (eg
Integrated Meteorological System, IMETS) can serve as a combat multiplier by providing commanders and their staffs with
known and forecasted conditions and effects in the air and on the ground. These enable them to plan for conditions before a
battle, helping the commander to choose the time, manner, and place of engagement. For example, in adverse weather the
effectiveness of long-range precision-strike weapons with electro-optical sensors and laser-guided systems becomes severely
limited. In such cases, employment of conventional systems and munitions would be more effective.

in which senior level commanders, while applauding the effectiveness of the basic rocket, stated a requirement for greater
range. The ER-MLRS is a free-flight, area-fire, artillery rocket designed to enhance the capabilities of the MLRS. It is
designed to engage targets out to 50 km. The ER-MLRS has the same diameter and length as the basic rocket but has been
modified to include a lengthened motor and a smaller warhead section with fewer grenades, a new warhead section fuze
and a modified center core burster. The XM85 grenade is equipped with a new self-destruct fuze designed to reduce the
clanger of residual duds to friendly troops. The launch pod for the ER-MLRS incorporates a new no-load detent system,
which coupled with the new low-level wind measuring device on the M270 launcher, increases accuracy and effectiveness
at longer ranges.
Warhead:
Propulsion:

Dual-Purpose Improved Conventional Munitions (DPICM)

Solid

The Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (G-MLRS) will be the follow-on to ER-MLRS. While retaining the majority
of the ER-MLRS components, the G-MLRS will incorporate a low cost guidance and control section to increase accuracy
out to a range of 60 km. The decrease in the number of grenades in the warhead will be offset by the improvement in
range accuracy. G-MLRS will ensure that planned future smart munitions will be precisely delivered at extended ranges.
FOREIGN COUNTERPART:

Several foreign multiple launch rocket systems have a range of 50 km or greater.

FOREIGN MILITARY SALES:

Norway is committed to procure the ER-MLRS beginning in FY98. There are several other potential FMS cases, including Bahrain, Denmark, and Israel.

PROGRAM STATUS:

The program entered the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase in November 1992. The ballistic
algorithm flight lest program began in August 1994 and is on schedule with no technical difficulties. Pre-Production
Qualification Testing (PPQT) was completed in 2QFY96. The program received approval to enter Low Rate Initial
Production (LRIP) in 3QFY96.

PROJECTED ACTIVITIES:

First LRIP rockets will be delivered in 2QFY98. Production qualification testing is also scheduled for 2QFY98. The first
ER-MLRS rockets will be available for fielding in 1QFY99. G-MLRS EMD will commence in FY98.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

MISSION:

The High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) provides early entry forces with a C-130 transportable launch vehicle capable of employing the entire MLRS Family of Munitions to conduct counterfire, suppression of enemy air defenses, and destruction of materiel and personnel targets across a 10 to 300 km range of engagement.

CHARACTERISTICS:

HIMARS integrates MLRS launcher capabilities with the new Medium Tactical Vehicles (MTV) 5-ton tactical truck chassis to provide a rapid response wheeled MLRS launcher. The resulting launcher requires 70% fewer airlift resources to
transport a battery, when compared to the M270 MLRS tracked launcher. HIMARS fires the entire suite of MLRS rockets
and Army TACMS missiles and is designed to be forward compatible with future MLRS munitions. The three man
HIMARS crew utilizes the on board fire control system to execute digitally passed fire missions from the vehicle's manrated cab. Mission timelines are enhanced by a GPS-based position determining system and a semi-automated ammunition
reload system.

FOREIGN COUNTERPART:

There are numerous wheeled multiple launch rocket systems on the international market. These systems are typically
short range, low fidelity targeting system, limited lethality systems. No foreign systems offer the unique capabilities provided by combining the robust HIMARS launcher and the range and effectiveness of the MLRS munitions suite.

MISSION:

The Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) provides counterbattery fire and suppression of enemy air defenses, light
materiel, and personnel targets.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The MLRS is an artillery weapon system that supplements cannon artillery fires by delivering large volumes of firepower
in a short time against critical, time-sensitive targets. The basic warhead carries improved conventional submunitions,
however, the MLRS is capable of supporting and delivering all of the MLRS Family of Munitions (MFOM) including the
Army Tactical Missile System (Army TACMS) weapons. Growth programs are under way to extend the range of the rocket system and to upgrade the fire control and launcher mechanical systems.

The U.S. initial operational capability for MLRS was achieved in 1983. Starting in FY89, MLRS has been coproduced by
the United States, Germany, France, Italy and the United Kingdom. As of September 1996, a total of 857 launchers have
been procured for the United States, 772 for the active Army and 185 for the National Guard. Current plans for improvement of the system include the M270A1 upgrade starting in FY98. This upgrade consists of the Improved Fire Control
System (IFCS) and the Improved Launcher Mechanical System (ILMS) modifications. The IFCS will mitigate electronic
obsolescence in the fire control system, accommodate the needs of the MLRS Family of Munitions (MFOM) systems under
development, and provide growth for future weapon systems. The ILMS will provide rapid responses to time-sensitive
targets by reducing the aiming time by 70% and reducing the reload time by 50%. The Extended Range Rocket (ERMLRS) will extend the current range of the basic rocket from 31.8 km to a new range of approximately 50 km. The IFCS
and the ILMS are in the Engineering and Manufacturing Development Phase.
M270A1 operational testing - 2QFY99.

CHARACTERISTICS:

Sense and Destroy Armor (SADARM) will provide an autonomous, counterbattery capability to indirect fire units.
SADARM is a fire-and-forget, multi-sensor, smart munition designed to detect and destroy counter-measured armored
vehicles, primarily self-propelled artillery. It is effective in all weather and terrain. SADARM is delivered to the target area
by 155 mm artillery projectiles. Each projectile carries two SADARM highly sophisticated submunitions. Once dispensed
from its carrier, the intelligent submunition detects appropriate targets using dual-mode millimeter wave and infrared sensors. Because of the multimode sensor suite, the submunition is equally effective against desert background and winter
snow. It fires a highly lethal explosively formed penetrator through the top of the target. SADARM is a gun-hardened submunition with the capability to be dispensed from a variety of carriers.

CONCEPT

MISSION:

The Tactical Endurance Synthetic Aperture Radar (TESAR) provides the medium altitude endurance unmanned aerial
vehicle (MAE UAV) with continuous all weather coverage of worldwide targets for long endurance missions at significant
operational ranges. High quality, one foot resolution imagery is downlinked, analyzed and distributed to the appropriate
user. The Synthetic Aperture Radar Target Recognition and Location System (STARLOS) provides for the integration of
sensor, signal processing and operational concepts. Utilizing new and emerging systems, it demonstrates reduced sensor
to shooter timelines and enhanced identification against mobile, time-critical ground targets at deep and extended ranges.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The TESAR is a key development by the Army for the OSD sponsored MAE UAV Advanced Concept Technology
Development (ACTD) program. This ACTD quickly satisfied the military need of long dwell coverage and reconnaissance
of small, mobile or fixed targets and to develop concepts of operation for endurance UAVs. The TESAR sensor is a lightweight (165 lb) high resolution (1 ft) payload that performs image formation processing in the air; and downlinks continuous high quality strip map imagery that is normally 800 m wide. Collected data is stored in the ground station, and
selected images are disseminated via satellite link to various intelligence nodes. An additional moving target indicator
(MTI) mode is being developed and will be on the MAE UAV Tire TESAR output will be interfaced to STARLOS equipment to demonstrate the significant value-added identification capability of automatic target cueing/recognition of high
priority ground targets at deep and extended ranges.
STARLOS is an advanced technology demonstration of the feasibility of locating and identifying high value targets from
an aerial platform such as an unmanned aerial vehicle. STARLOS is meant to operate on an Army designated aerial platform. Targets are identified and located by means of a high resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensor coupled with
very high speed signal processors to perform rapid automatic target recognition or automatic target cueing. The program
has become a major component of the Joint Precision Strike Demonstration Program (JPSD), and was the impetus for the
development by industry of a high resolution SAR payload for theJCS medium altitude endurance class of unmanned aerial vehicles. The system is designed to support operational commanders in world-wide contingency operations, and supports the direct, real-time sensor-to-shooter architecture, DoD deep precision strike, and battlefield visualization concepts.

The Joint Precision Strike The Joint Precision Strike Demonstration (JPSD) Program is developing and demonstrating an all-weather, day/night, endDemonstration (JPSD) to-end, sensor-to-shooter precision strike capability to defeat critical targets at extended ranges. Initiated in FY92 as part of
Program: the Office of the Secretary of Defense's Precision Strike Thrust II, the program's early focus had been centered on Army programs, but has expanded into a Joint environment. Although the program originally derived from the difficulties in locating and destroying Scuds during DESERT STORM, JPSD is presently exploring and demonstrating ways to counter any high
value, time critical target, especially those at extended ranges.
To optimize the Land Component Commander's precision strike capabilities, the program has four strategic objectives. The
first is to identify and establish a timeline for the Army's current precision strike baseline. The second is to reduce precision strike timelines from the current capability, measured in hours, to a future capability, measured in minutes. The third
is to achieve a measurable improvement in target location and identification, weapons effectiveness and damage assessment.
The final objective is to advance precision strike concepts of employment including real-time sensor to weapon cueing,
near-real-time data dissemination of seamless sensor-to shooter node communications, and dynamic re-targeting.
To support JPSD's building block demonstrations in a realistic and doctrinally correct environment and to provide a mechanism to collect, organize, analyze and display data, a JPSD Integration and Evaluation Center (IEC) has been developed at
the U.S. Army Topographic Engineering Center (TEC), Alexandria, VA. The IEC has an extensive set of connectivities,
both classified and unclassified, to allow the integration of live inputs, simulations, prerecorded data and scripted events.
The IEC has already proven itself to be an extremely useful capability to a variety of-users (system developers, trainers and
warfighters).
JPSD's accomplishments to date include: First Light and Rapid Strike Demonstration conducted early in the program;
beyond Line-of-Sight Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) demonstration in Nov. 93; the FY94 surface-to-surface demonstration which highlighted the U.S. Army's Extended Range Army Tactical Missile System (ER ATA CMS) in precision strike missions against time-critical, deep targets and the FY95 - 98 Precision/Rapid Counter 240mm MRL (P/RC-MRL) Advanced
Concept Technology Demonstration (ACTD). This ACTD included demonstrations with large numbers of troops (including support from the sister services) connecting multiple facilities within the continental U.S. and in Korea. The JPSD
demonstrations bring together as a team the warfighter, the scientist and the engineer providing them experience of handson utilization of new technologies and concepts and assessment of the impact of new capabilities on doctrine.
JPSD is planning a follow-on effort to the P/RC-MRL to address remaining shortfalls in the CINC's precision strike capabilities. Also the Rapid Battlefield Visualization (RBV) ACTD will demonstrate rapid generation of high resolution digital terrain data, combined with situation awareness information and embedded wargaming, and rapidly disseminated to provide
commanders with a view of the battlespace.

The Guided MLRS ATD will design, develop and flight test a low-cost guidance and control system for the extended-range
MLRS free-flight rocket, thereby substantially improving its delivery accuracy, reducing the number of rockets required to
defeat the target, reducing the logistics burden and expanding the set of MLRS targets to include precision targets. The guidance system will make use of inertial and global positioning system low-cost component technologies and will have application for bomblet, precision guided submunition, mine and unitary/earth penetrator warheads. The Guided MLRS ATD
is being simulated as an advanced concept in the Rapid Force Projection Initiative ACTD and the Joint Precision Strike
Demonstration Precision/Rapid Counter Multiple Rocket Launcher ACTD, as well as the mobile strike force advanced
warfighting experiment. The Guided MLRS technology is scheduled to begin Engineering and Manufacturing Development
(EMD) in FY98.

Indirect Precision Fire The goal ol the Indirect Precision Fire ATD is to demonstrate an order of magnitude accuracy improvement in an affordAdvanced Technology able, modular guidance package, compatible with a NATO standard fuze well for existing and future artillery projectiles. To
Demonstration (ATD): do so, the ATD will develop an auto-registration and a guided competent munition. The auto-registration concept utilizes
GPS technology integrated with a ballistic computer on the platform to generate automated firing corrections. The guided
competent munition concept utilizes gun-hardened GPS/INS guidance and a canard control system. The guided competent munition effort leverages a substantial Navy investment.
Counter-Multiple Rocket
Launcher (C-MRL)
Advanced Concept Technology
Demonstration (ACTD):

During a conversation with the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army (Research and Technology) in the Fall of 1993, the
Commander-in-Chief, United Nations Command/Combined Forces Command/United States Forces Korea (CINC
UNC/CFC/USFK) said he could use help in defeating the North Korean 240mm Multiple Rocket Launcher (MRL) threat.
Subsequently the Joint Precision Strike Demonstration Project Office (JPSDPO) began a planning and staffing effort that
resulted in the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Advanced Technology approving the Precision/Rapid Counter MRL
Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration (C-MRL ACTD) in December 1994. The C-MRL ACTD, the first OSD
approved ACTD, spans FY95 through FY98. It leverages current capabilities and integrates emerging technologies to provide the CINC a significantly enhanced capability to defeat the 240mm MRU near the Korean Demilitarized Zone. To
accomplish this task JPSDPO has developed a number of enhanced capabilities and new operational concepts , and has conducted a large distributed exercise in September and October 1995 to demonstrate and evaluate the capabilities and concepts. The exercise included activity at numerous locations: Army III Corps elements at Fort Hood, TX; III Corps Artillery
elements and the Depth and Simultaneous Attack Battle Lab at Fort Sill, OK; III Corps Aviation elements and the Aviation
Battle Lab Support Group at Fort Rucker, AL; Air Force and Navy simulation centers in the Washington, D.C. area; and
JPSD's Integration and Evaluation Center in Alexandria, VA. JPSDPO will conduct a second and final exercise in Korea in
September and October 1996 to demonstrate refined operational concepts and more advanced capabilities. It will be a large
joint exercise involving: the USFK staff; the 2nd Infantry Division; 7th Air Force; Arizona Air National Guard; 7th Fleet; the
Air Force's Theater Battle Arena simulation center in the Pentagon; and several Navy simulation centers along the East
Coast. Enhanced capabilities will be "left behind" in Korea following the exercise as decided by USFK. JPSDPO will provide maintenance and training support for the "leave behinds" through FY98, after which time support responsibility transitions to the Theater, system project offices and Service commodity commands.

omorrow's Army will be a smaller force, but with just as many, if not more, crises to respond to on behalf of the
nation. As a result, Army forces will need improved firepower, improved mobility and greater situational awareness if they are to maintain their effectiveness. The Army of the future must be able to dominate the maneuver battlefield, despite and because
of its smaller size. The smaller size means the Army of the future will have less margin for error and so must maximize the combat power of
each soldier. The Army must pursue weapon systems with greater ranges, greater accuracy and greater firepower. The Army must also acquire
systems that will extend the all-weather/night fighting capabilities of its forces.
Army modernization efforts to Dominate the Maneuver Battle fall into two categories: upgrades and new systems. The first category covers Army
programs to greatly enhance the capabilities of its existing systems. The upgrades to the Abrams tank and the Bradley Fighting Vehicle System
(BFVS) will improve the communications and data processing systems, the night-fighting capabilities and the survivability of the vehicles. The
Driver's Vision Enhancer (DVE) and the 2nd Generation Forward Looking Infrared (2nd Gen FLIR) are two examples of these upgrades. The
Apache Longbow program will vastly improve the ability the Apache attack helicopter to track and engage a large number of air and ground targets. The Apache will also add the 2nd Gen FLIR. Digitization upgrades to all platforms will allow them to operate more efficiently as part of an
integrated whole.
The Army is also acquiring several new systems that will greatly improve the ability of its forces to prosecute a ground war. The Crusader is a
revolutionary artillery system, using a Regenerative Liquid Propellant Gun and an automated loading system. Crusader also requires 3 fewer
crewmen than previous self-propelled artillery systems. The new Command and Control Vehicle (C2V) will allow C2 "on the move" from an
armored vehicle that can keep pace with Bradley and Abrams. To improve its mobility, the Army is also enhancing its combat engineering capabilities with the acquisition of the Grizzly breaching vehicle and the Wolverine heavy assault bridge vehicle.
This combination of improved firepower, improved mobility and improved situational awareness will make tomorrow's Army maneuver forces
a very powerful tool. By maintaining a tremendous technological advantage over potential adversaries, the Army will retain its ability to Dominate
the Maneuver Battle and will continue to be a strong deterrent to would be aggressors.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The Abrams tank provides heavy armor superiority on the battlefield.

The Abrams tank closes with and destroys enemy forces on the integrated battlefield using mobility, firepower, and shock
effect. The 105 mm main gun on the Ml and IPM1 and the 120 mm main gun on the M1A1 and M1A2, combined with
the powerful 1,500 hp turbine engine and special armor, make the Abrams tank particularly suitable for attacking or
defending against large concentrations of heavy armor forces on a highly lethal battlefield. Additional features of the M1A1
are increased armor protection, suspension improvements, and an NBC protection system that provides additional survivability in a contaminated environment. The M1A2 program builds on the Ml Al to provide an Abrams tank with the
necessary improvements in lethality, survivability, and fightability required to defeat advanced threats. The M1A2 includes
a Commander's Independent Thermal Viewer, an Improved Commander's Weapon Station, position navigation equipment, a distributed data and power architecture, embedded diagnostic system, improved fire control system, and a radio
interface unit that allows, through the SINCGARS radio, rapid transfer of digital situational data and overlays to compatible systems on the digital battlefield.

Ol'KHATIONS AND SlIIM'OKT

MISSION:

The Advanced Tank Armament System (ATAS) Program provides next generation armament system technologies for
application to the Ml Abrams production main battle tank. These technologies are designed to increase the lethality and
accuracy of the Abrams tank system at extended ranges while also reducing target engagement times. They allow the tank
crew to engage enemy targets further, faster and more accurately than currently fielded systems.

CHARACTERISTICS:

ATAS provides three main improvements to the Abrams tank - a long barrel, 120 mm XM291 cannon, a compact 120 mm
autoloader, and extended range fire control system improvements. The long barrel XM291 cannon gives all current
Abrams tank ammunition the ability to kill enemy targets one kilometer further out in range than is currently possible
This is clue to the higher muzzle velocity generated by the XM291 gun at shot exit. This translates into greater penetration, range and killing power for the tank. The magazine of the compact 120 mm automatic ammunition loader
(autoloader) fits into the existing Abrams tank bustle ammunition storage area, operates at a sustained 12 rounds per
minute firing rate, and provides inter-round fratricide protection. Automatic target detection and tracking software
decrease the time necessary for the tank crew to acquire and engage enemy targets. Tank firing accuracy is greatly
enhanced by the addition of a continuous muzzle reference system, advanced fire control solutions, state of the art lead
predictors and improved gun servos and actuators. Together, these improvements allow the tank crew to quickly and accurately kill enemy targets at extended ranges.

FOREIGN COUNTERPART:

Several countries in the world include ATAS components in their tank fleets. The French LeClerc has a long barrel 120 mm
cannon and autoloader. Russian T72 and T80 series tanks all have autoloaders. Finally, the Israeli Merkeva tank uses auto
target trackers to improve gun accuracy.

FOREIGN MILITARY SALES:

The US continues to be involved in the Quadripartite Future Tank Main Armament agreement between the US, Germany,
France and the United Kingdom. The goal of this agreement is to develop a common large caliber cannon and bullet.

PROGRAM STATUS:

ATAS is a two phased program that is on track through FY03. Phase I will conclude with the testing of a Bradley Fighting
Vehicle Autotracker on an M1A2 in FY97. Phase two involves the integration and testing of advanced fire control components in an M1A2 System Enhancement Program tank in FY98. The XM291 and autoloader will be added to this
demonstrator and tested in FY99. This will be followed by Engineering and Manufacturing development of the XM291
gun leading to its type classification in FY03.

CHARACTERISTICS:

Longbow is a development and acquisition program for a millimeter wave radar air/ground targeting system capable of
being used day, night, in adverse weather, and through battlefield obscurants. Longbow consists primarily of the integration of a mast-mounted millimeter wave fire control radar, a radar frequency interferometer, and a radar frequency fireand-forget HELLFIRE missile onto the Apache. Longbow's digitized target acquisition system provides automated detection, location, classification, prioritization, and target handover. The AH-64D cockpit is redesigned to digitize and multiplex all systems. The MANPRINT crew stations have multifunction displays to reduce pilot work load and increase effectiveness. The modernized Apache heavy attack team now will be able to provide a truly "coordinated" rapid-fire (16 separate targets within 1 minute) capability to the maneuver force commander on a 24-hour basis in day, night, and adverse
weather conditions.

The Apache Longbow System entered Full Scale Development in December 1990, following an extremely successful Proof
of Principle (POP) phase. Technical success during POP culminated with the live firing of missiles against a wide variety
of targets, moving and stationary, through smoke and obscurants. The initial Operational Test and Evaluation, conducted
from January through March 1995, proved the Apache Longbow to be an operationally effective and suitable weapon system. As expected, the Apache Longbow (AH-64D) with its capability to engage targets in weather and obscurant conditions which preclude the employment of laser-guided weapons was far more effective in defeating threat armored
vehicles and more survivable in the threat air defense environment than the AH64A. The Apache Longbow received
Milestone III production approval in October 1995. Single year contracts for the airframe and fire control radar were
awarded in December 1995 and March 1996 respectively. A five year multiyear contract for the airframe was signed on 16
August 1996. The current program objective calls for 227 Longbow fire control radar mission kits capable of being
installed on the Apache's modernized fleet (758 minus attrition) being upgraded to the new AH-64D baseline configuration. The Apache Longbow will add significant warfighting capability to the combined arms team through increased survivability, lethality, and versatility, as well as through long-term reliability improvements.

MISSION:

The Close Combat Tactical Trainer (CCTT) provides realistic individual and collective training for armor and mechanized
vehicle crews on a simulated battlefield.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The CCTT's function is to train active and reserve component Ml Tank and M2/3 Bradley crews on mission training planbased collective (crew through battalion task force) tasks and skills in command, control, communications, and maneuver on a simulated, fully interactive, real-time battlefield. The CCTT will simulate, in real time, the conduct of combat
operations in a realistic environment with an appropriate and challenging opposing force that will require realistic individual, crew, and staff actions, placing the stresses of combat on all participants. The CCTT is fully distributed interactive
simulation (DIS) compliant and is capable of conducting joint/coalition combined arms training with other CCTT interoperable training systems. The system will allow individuals, crews, and units to operate in a simulated combat environment, reducing the impact of restrictions of weapon effects, safety, terrain limitations, and time, and will assist in overcoming the effects of crew turbulence and scarce resources.
The CCTT program comprises a group of fully interactive networked simulators and command, control, and communications workstations, replicating the Ml and M2/3 vehicles and weapon systems of a company/team operating on a simulated real-time battlefield. The system will exist in both fixed-site and mobile versions. The fixed-site version will be static at all times during operation. The mobile version will be static during operation but will move over primary and secondary roads during transport from site to site. The mobile version is capable of deploying with the unit during contingency operations.

MISSION:

Crusader will be the indirect fire support "system of systems," providing direct and general support fires to maneuver
forces on the future battlefield.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The Self Propelled Howitzer (SPH) is a 155 mm self-propelled howitzer system that will provide a significant increase in
artillery survivability lethality, mobility, and operational capability and effectiveness through use and integration of
advanced technology in its subsystems and combat components. The SPH will deliver unprecedented firepower capabilities at extended ranges. Some of the SPH critical technologies and capabilities include the XM297 inter mid wall cooled
cannon, Modular Artillery Charge System (MACS), autosettable multioption fuze, automated ammunition-handling system, enhanced survivability, and improved mobility. The armored Resupply Vehicle (RSV) will provide the foundation for
resupply of ammunition and fuel for the SPH. Inserting high-payoff technologies in robotics, automation, expert systems,
vetronics, and improved ammunition propulsion into the resupply process, the RSV will provide the necessary ammunition to meet the expected firing rates; meet the goals for autonomous operations; and capitalize on cost and operational
advantages of component commonality. RSV critical technologies and capabilities include a teleoperated docking arm,
automated ammunition resupply system, automated fuel transfer system, and improved mobility. These systems, when
fielded, will displace the M109A6 Paladin self-propelled howitzer and M992A2 field artillery ammunition supply vehicle
in rapidly deployable and forward-deployed forces.

MISSION:

The mission of the Hornet is to counter the enemy's mobility. It will delay, disrupt and canalize enemy vehicle movement
in the close battle. Hornet is planned for immediate use today with early entry forces such as the 82nd Airborne. It will
provide survivability for small isolated forces to minimize casualties and protect against armored vehicle attacks.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The Hornet is the Army's first generation of a smart, autonomous top attack munition. It employs seismic and acoustic
sensors to detect, classify and track a target. Once the target is validated by internal control electronics and within the 100
meter lethal radius, the munition determines the optimum firing point and launches a smart submunition over the target.
The sublet acquires the target by infrared sensor and fires a tantalum Explosively Formed Penetrator (EFP) at the top of
the target vehicle.

MISSION:
CHARACTERISTICS:

Javelin provides a man-portable, medium anti-tank capability to the infantry, scouts, and combat engineers.
Javelin is a man-portable, anti-tank system developed for the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps. The system is highly lethal
against tanks with conventional and reactive armor. Javelin comprises two major tactical components: a reusable
Command Launch Unit (CLU) and a missile sealed in a disposable Launch Tube Assembly. The CLU incorporates an integrated day/night sight and provides target engagement capability in adverse weather and countermeasure environments.
The CLU may also be used in the stand-alone mode for battlefield surveillance and target detection.
The Javelin system weighs less than 49.5 lb and has a maximum range in excess of 2,000 m. Javelin's key technical feature is the use of fire-and-forget technology which allows the gunner to fire and immediately take cover. Additional special features are the top attack and/or direct fire modes (for targets under cover), integrated day/night sight, advanced tandem warhead, imaging infrared seeker, target lock-on before launch, and soft launch (the Javelin can be fired safely from
enclosures and covered fighting positions). Javelin replaces the Dragon.

FOREIGN COUNTERPART:

Although not yet in production, the Israeli Spike and Gil are being promoted as having fire-and-forget capability. Other
medium range systems currently fielded, or in development, include the Russian AT-7, the Swedish BOFORS BILL, the
French MILAN 2T and the Euro Missile TRIGAT

FOREIGN MILITARY SALES:

Recent approval of the Javelin export version opens the door for Foreign Military Sales. Production capacity is expected
to be available for foreign customers in FY98.

PROGRAM STATUS:

After a 54-month Engineering and Manufacturing Development phase, the Javelin went into Low Rate Initial Production
(LRIP) in FY94. Fielding of the system began in June 1996.

The Kiowa Warrior fills the armed reconnaissance role for attack helicopter and air cavalry units.
The Kiowa Warrior currently is the only practical armed reconnaissance aircraft in the Army inventory until RAH-66 fielding begins early in the next decade. The OH-58D performs reconnaissance, security, command and control, target acquisition/designation, and defensive air combat missions. The Kiowa Warrior adds armed reconnaissance, light attack, and
Multipurpose Light Helicopter (MPLH = rapid deployment, troop lift, cargo, and casualty evacuation) to the basic OH58D Kiowa mission capabilities. The OH-58D has a Mast-Mounted Sight that houses a Thermal-Imaging System, LowLight Television, and a Laser Rangefinder/Designator. A highly accurate navigation system permits precise target location
that can be handed off to other engagement systems via the Airborne Target Handover System. The Laser Designator can
provide autonomous designation for the laser HELLFIRE or remote designation for other laser-guided precision weapons.
Air-to-Air Stinger (ALAS) provides security against threat aircraft. The armed retrofit program began in FY91 and provides
air-to-ground weapons and other improvements to previously produced OH-58Ds.

Laser Hellfire provides a heavy anti-armor and surgical strike capability for attack helicopters.
Laser Hellfire is used as the main armament of the U.S. Army's AH-64 Apache and the U.S. Marine Corps' AH-1W Super
Cobra attack helicopters. It is also used on the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior helicopter. The laser missile homes on a laser
spot that can be projected from ground observers, other aircraft, or the launching aircraft itself. This enables the system
to be employed in a variety of modes; autonomous, air or ground, direct or indirect, single shot, rapid, or ripple fire.
There are three versions of the Laser Hellfire missile in various stages of the life cycle:
Basic Hellfire: Semi-active laser seeker missile system.
Interim Hellfire: Similar to basic Hellfire but adds a precursor warhead to defeat reactive armor.
Hellfire II: This missile incorporates many improvements over the previous models of Hellfire, including laser obscurant/
backscatter improvements. Other improvements include electro-optical countermeasures, hardening, improved target
reacquisition capability, an advanced warhead capable of defeating all projected armor threats into the 21st century, reprogrammability to adapt to changing threats and mission requirement, shipboard compatibility, and regaining the original
Hellfire missile weight and length.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

MISSION:

The Line-of-Sight Anti-Tank (LOSAT) will provide a high volume of extremely lethal, accurate missile fire, effective against
heavy armor systems at ranges exceeding tank main gun ranges.

CHARACTERISTICS:

The LOSAT weapon system consists of kinetic energy missiles (KEM) and a second generation forward looking infrared
(FLIR)/TV acquisition sensor mounted on an air mobile Heavy High Mobility Mult-Purpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV)
combat vehicle chassis in order to help remedy the early entry force lethality shortfall against heavy armor. The key attractions of the LOSAT are the tremendous overmatch lethality of the KEM (defeats all predicted future armored combat vehicles) and its deployability which is compatible with the early entry forces. The LOSAT also will provide increased survivabihty and countermeasure effectiveness. The LOSAT will operate out to the maximum range of direct fire combat
engagements and will provide dramatically increased rates of fire and enhanced performance under day and night adverse
weather, and obscured battlefield conditions. The current program provides for the conduct of a demonstration of the
HMMWV platform and will involve flight tests and early soldier evaluations of the system. The demonstration program
is a cost-effective means to assess the utility of LOSAT to the early entry force as part of the rapid force projection initiative (RFPI). This project will develop improved technologies for KE missile defeat of robust armor targets and evaluate
integration of the LOSAT capability into an air mobile configuration. Project objectives are to position the technology for
future acquisition decisions, demonstrate subsystem capabilities in flight tests and dirty battlefield environment, evaluate
the utility for the LOSAT technology for the early forces, demonstrate an integrated HMMWV-based LOSAT system in
flight test and advanced warfighting experiments, and evaluate affordability issues.

MISSION:

Second Generation Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) will proviclethe Abrams Main Battle Tank, Bradley Fighting Vehicle
and Long Range Advanced Scout Surveillance system with a leap ahead target acquisition capability during all atmospheric
and obscurant conditions, and permit them to "see the same battlespace." One goal of this program is to develop and produce a common FLIR to maximize economies of scale during production, and minimize life cycle costs.

CHARACTERISTICS:

This new "common use" FLIR is the Army's first major Horizontal Technology Integration (HTI) program One of the
Army's key objectives in its quest to "Own The Night" is the Horizontal Technology Integration of Second-Generation
FLIR technology in a number of new and existing platforms.
The concept is elegant in its simplicity. By using a common thermal sensor known as a B Kit that can be integrated into
any candidate platform, the user community will be able to "see the same battlespace" and have a broad overmatch to
potential adversary capabilities. The linkage between the B Kit and the perspective sights will be system specific platform
links called A Kits.
The program, which entered engineering and manufacturing development in July 1994, will initially upgrade two candidate platforms selected by Army leadership, the M1A2 and M2A3. The current platform sight applications arc M1A2
Gunner's Primary Sight, M1A2 Commander's Independent Thermal Viewer, M2A3 Improved Bradley Acquisition system
and Commander's I Independent Viewer, and the Long Range Advanced Scout Surveillance System (LRAS3). Potential
exists for other Army programs such as Apache, Comanche, and future armored vehicles to benefit from HTI.
The present system concept will allow adaptation of this common sensor to any new platform application desired by Army
leadership. In addition, this system will provide a battlespace observation edge for U.S. forces well into the next century.
Commonality of FLIRs in multiple platforms facilitates development and fielding of future upgrades such as image fusion,
automatic target recognizers, and target trackers.

Ojective Individual
Combat Weapon
(OICW)
Advanced Technology
Demonstration (ATD)
(1998-1999):

The objective individual combat weapon ATD will demonstrate a potential

replacement for the 5.56-mm M16 family of rifles and the 40-mm M203
grenade launcher. Its goal is to dramatically improve the probability of hit,
lethality and versatility in all operational environments. Weapons concepts
being pursued by two competing contractors, AAI Corp. and Alliant
Techsystems, both feature a revolutionary, ergonomically designed and integrated weapon system, coupling the firepower of 20-mm air bursting and 5.56mm kinetic energy projectiles. These concepts have become feasible because of
recent advances in miniaturized fuzing and modular, opto-electronic fire control systems. The bursting munition capability allows a soldier to attack personnel who are in defilade, such as those in or behind structures that one might
encounter in urban combat.
Application of controlled air-bursting munitions will provide decisive target
effects, providing a new, KBl
currently unavailable capability
to
our
troops |||
for peacekeeping, peace
enforcement, counterterrorism and surgical strike
missions.
The 5.56-mm
kinetic energy weapon
provides direct fire and
suppressive fire capabilities. The OICW is featured as the individual
weapon for the future land warrior. In 1999, a battle lab experiment at
Ft. Benning, GA, will include safety-certified weapons and live fire
demonstrations.

Rapid Force Projection Initiative

(RFPI)
Advanced Concept
Technology Demonstration
(ACTD)
(1994-2000):

The RFPIACTD will provide early entry forces with advanced technologies and systems to make them more survivable when
encountering a heavy force. The puipose of RFPI is to address the operational capability requirements, developed by
TRADOC, for lethality and survivability of light forces while maintaining the inherent strategic deployability of these forces.
RFPI is based on a "system of systems" concept of Hunters and Standoff Killers and will demonstrate technology solutions
which greatly expand the battlespace of light forces. The operational capability enhancements offered by RFPI will enable
the light force commander to mass precision fires on threat forces, including armor, at ranges beyond which they can respond.
This capability will greatly increase the survivability of early entry forces. The expansion of the light force battlespace is
accomplished through the employment of a suite of sensors (Hunters) which will detect threat forces before they can engage
the friendly force. The Hunters will provide near-real time digital information through a Light Digital Tactical Operations
Center (LDTOC) element, which will match the target with an appropriate weapon, dramatically reducing sensor-to-shooter timelines and providing the commander with the ability to synchronize massed fires on enemy forces. Ground and aerial Hunter systems are equipped with advanced sensor packages capable of detecting targets well forward of friendly forces.
Near-real time target information is relayed from the Hunters through a battlefield computer network to the Standoff Killers.
These standoff systems are designed to engage and kill enemy armor forces with long-range precision munitions. RFPI
ACTD simulation activities will identify the combat worth of each ATD/TD through evaluations performed in the context of
the performance of existing fielded and evolving systems in simulated rapid deployment scenarios. Through the integration
of field demonstrations including Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) connectivity, ATDsAfDs will be scrutinized at a

level heretofore not possible. The RFPI ACTD will integrate simulation and the novel technologies produced by individual
ATDs/TDs into a large-scale field experiment in full coordination with TRADOC, Battle Labs, and other Users. The ACTD
is a tool for the supporting User elements to explore emerging warfighting concepts and doctrine through planning, conduct
of, and participation in the ACTD large scale field experiment. The ACTD provides an opportunity for extensive User interaction with the new RFPI Hunter Standoff Killer (HSOK) concept and its emerging technologies while encouraging User
exploration of a variety of excursions to current (baseline) procedures. The U.S. Army Forces Command (FORSCOM) has
selected an element of the XVIII Airborne Corps to serve as the RFPI ACTD Experiment Force. This unit will retain selected experiment materiel (residuals) for at least two years to perform an extended User evaluation and to allow arrangements
for long-term retention which may potentially result in acquisition decisions for selected high-payoff systems. The enhancements to the operational capability requirements of early entry and light forces provided by RFPI technologies will significantly reduce threat combat power prior to the occurrence of the direct fire battle. The capability to overmatch any threat
force with highly deployable forces is essential for the success of a force projection Army.
Hunter Sensor Suite
Advanced Technology
Demonstration (ATD)
(1994-1997):

This ATD will develop and demonstrate advanced sensor suite technology on a hunter/scout vehicle to provide on-themove, long range target acquisition and precision target location information with reduced targeting hand-off timelines to
standoff killers. The long range acquisition capability will be accomplished by using a stabilized, mast mounted second
generation FLIR, day Ty and vehicle mounted acoustic cueing sensors. Precision targeting will be through an eyesafe laser
rangefinder, GPS, north-seeking module and precision gimbals. Aided target recognition will be employed to reduce the
operator's time to detect. Pacing technologies include: second generation focal plane arrays, advanced signal processing
hardware, image compression/transfer techniques, ground-based aided target recognition/tracking algorithms, acoustic sensors, and long range optics. Additionally, the ATD will provide a C4I interface for transmission of voice and digital messages, as well as imagery. The Hunger Sensor Suite will be integrated on a hunter vehicle for use in the RFPI Advanced
Concept Technolog)' Demonstration (ACTD). Supports: Early Entry Light Forces.

The Enhanced Fiber Optic Guided Missile

(EFOGM) is the primary "killer" within the
"hunter/standoff killer" concept of the Rapid
Force Projection Initiative and the OSD-approved
RFPI ACTD. The EFOGM system is a multi-purpose, precision kill weapon system. The primary
mission of the EFOGM is to engage and defeat
threat armored combat vehicles, other high value
ground targets, and hovering or moving rotary
wing aircraft that may be masked from line of
sight direct fire weapon systems. In addition, the
system can be used to surgically strike with minimal collateral damage. EFOGM is a day/night,
adverse weather capable system that allows the
maneuver commander to extend the battle space
beyond line of sight to ranges up to 15 kilometers. |ff$
The system consists of a gunner's station, a tactical missile, and a fiber optic data link. The missile
can navigate to the target area, and the gunner can
intervene at any time to lock on and engage any
detected targets. The gunner views the flightpath and target via a seeker on the missile linked to the gunners video console. The missile to be demonstrated will incorporate an IR imaging seeker, a variety of advanced targeting functionalities
and a global positioning system (GPS)-based inertial measurement unit for accurate targeting. Beginning 4QFY98, EFOGM
will participate in the RFPI ACTD at Fort Benning, GA. In a deployable demonstration, EFOGM will undergo a two-year
Extended User Evaluation (EUE) with the XVI11 Airborne Corps beginning in FY99 during which an EFOGM Company
deployed with a Company Command and Control Element, 3 Platoon Leader's Vehicle, and 12 EFOGM launchers to support an Infantry Brigade Task Force.
The Target Acquisition ATD will demonstrate a combat vehicle, multi-sensor suite
to provide automated wide area search, acquisition, identification and prioritization
of targets. These technologies will allow reduced crew workload and decreased target acquisition timelines, in support of lethal, deployable combat vehicles. The sensor suite consists of two sensor gimbals. A standard second generation FLIR, multifunction laser, and TV camera are housed on one platform. A second sensor platform contains a Moving Target Indicator (MTI) millimeter radar. The two gimbals
search independently and provide target cues to the operator or to the other sensor
platform. The multifunction laser will have three operating modes: rangefinding,
designating, and a non-imaging ladar. The ladar data is fed directly into the aided
target recognition processor to allow for FLIR/ladar fusion and synergistically
improve performance. Supports: Future Scout/Cavalry Vehicle, M1A2 SEP, Future
Combat System.
