Dear Colleague

Sequestration Budget Cuts Uncertainty These are words that are interjected into every discussion about the future of military projects Platforms and systems as critical as the very vehicles that move our Warfighters around the battlefield are no different Multiple projects and vehicle systems have been cancelled or have never come to full fruition over the last several years

There is good news though We are moving forward again

There are some challenges though such as

middot Identifying ldquobest valuerdquo components is difficult to define

middot Assessing the full spectrum of sub contractor capabilities is easier said than done

middot and speed to market is essential as conflicts abroad percolate

What does this mean for us It means that the Army and Marine Corps are going shopping for a completely new vehicle packages From the weapons to the tires the paint to the bolts Everything is new And who is going to supply these new parts Who is going to challenge the existing tactical vehicle mold and come up with a new system that revolutionizes the battlefield Is it you

This summit is the perfect opportunity to foster that free exchange of ideas and philosophies that leads to the marvelous innovations that protect our Warfighters on a daily basis To present solutions to the individuals who can make sure it ends up exactly where it needs to be the Warfighters hands To this end we will hear from Subject Matter Experts Engineers Project Managers and Senior Leadership from within the Military

Whether you are in the Military work heavily in the tactical vehicle industry or just have a peripheral interest in Tactical Vehicles This event is for you

1115 Overview of ABBS Advanced Protection Systems One of them most common and deadliest of threats to Warfighters

on the move are the unseen IEDs This brief will give an overview of the range of Active Protection Systems These systems either directly attack an incoming threat to prevent it becoming effective or which actively counteract and hence mitigate the effects of a threat followed by a more detailed description of the new technologies which will shortly become available in the USACanada The relevance of these technologies to armored vehicle design especially large APCrsquos LTVrsquos SUVrsquos and Lightweight Special Forces vehicles will be demonstrated and how basic armored vehicle designs need to change to maximize the potential benefits available will be outlinedWe will be introduced to such topics as

middot The DREHTAINER Zero Shockreg technology which protects against the initial shock and floor deformation effects of under-belly mines or IEDrsquos

BravoZulu Services novel technology (ZuluShield Panel) was initially investigated for the nations Space Program and further developed to mitigate both fragmentation and blast threats An independent assessment of this panel technology was lead by GTD Engineering during an under-body blast environment (UBBE) and a controlled blast wall scenario During UBBE testing the panel protected vehicle was able to significantly reduce seat rail accelerations the effective impulse experienced by the vehicle and floor pan intrusion which all translated to significantly reduced mortality due to predicted severe lower limb and pelvic injury However there remains a risk of cervical injury in unrestrained vehicle personnel Controlled testing showed significantly decreased load transfer to the panel mount reduced static and reflected pressures as well as reduced oscillation magnitudes explaining the reduced impulse during vehicle testing Experimental details and results will be discussed

1445 Armyrsquos Combat Vehicle Modernization Strategy

The Army is currently sees a requirement for three distinct lightweight combat vehicles in maneuver formations An Ultra-Light Combat Vehicle a Light Reconnaissance Vehicle and a Light Tank These distinctly different capabilities are intended initially to enable the Infantry Brigade Combat Team to execute forcible entry operations but may have far more broad application As the new Army Operating Concept outlines a need for greater expeditionary maneuver capability expressed as scalabletailorable force packages so we must seek the right combinations of different light weight platforms We also see the need for horizontal technological insertions across platforms to generate greater capability for maneuver formations

BravoZulu Services novel technology (ZuluShield Panel) was initially investigated for the nations Space Program and further developed to mitigate both fragmentation and blast threats An independent assessment of this panel technology was lead by GTD Engineering during an under-body blast environment (UBBE) and a controlled blast wall scenario During UBBE testing the panel protected vehicle was able to significantly reduce seat rail accelerations the effective impulse experienced by the vehicle and floor pan intrusion which all translated to significantly reduced mortality due to predicted severe lower limb and pelvic injury However there remains a risk of cervical injury in unrestrained vehicle personnel Controlled testing showed significantly decreased load transfer to the panel mount reduced static and reflected pressures as well as reduced oscillation magnitudes explaining the reduced impulse during vehicle testing Experimental details and results will be discussed

1315 WORKShOP C Overcoming the Obstacles - Terrain Concerns and the Overall Mission

In this workshop we will focus on the Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle and its introduction to the battlefield Additionally we will focus on the increased versatility of the AMPV and how it will become a key component in the Army of 2025

Specifically we will be addressing the following

middot Improvements in Soldier Protection Systems (ie NBC systems)

Terrain considerations are always an important part of the METT-TC process and can never be over emphasized when dealing with a resilient enemy utilizing asymmetrical warfare From initial testing of a vehicle to the actual deployment on the battlefield vehicles must be able to perform under the most stringent of environments From World War II to the battle of Mogadishu all too often have terrain considerations and vehicle performance have changed the entire outlook of a battle or campaign

middot Defensive Improvements middot Versatility of the AMPV in a variety of mission roles

COL Mike Milner Program Manager Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle

We will examine topics such as

middot Evolution of Traction Control Systems middot Overall Evaluation and Testing Process middot Wheeled Vehicle Mobility vs Tracked Vehicle Mobility

so have the requirements for the Militaryrsquos Light Tactical Vehicle fleets From the introduction of the HMMWV to the requirements set forth for the current Joint Light Tactical Vehicle Program (JLTV) requirements can be difficult to understand without first understanding why the requirements were originally put into place

The following topics will be covered in more depth

middot Introduction of the HMMWV

middot Move to the MRAP and M-ATV

middot Original Requirements for the JLTV

COL Marc Mueller Director Training and Doctrine Command Capability Manager for Transportation

0945 Mine Resistant Ambush Proof Vehicles In this session we will examine the role of the MRAP vehicle in

current conflicts as well as how it revolutionized the battlefield when initially produced Furthermore we will dive into the long term role of this vehicle in future conflicts versus the role of smaller vehicle packages In this session we will cover

1445 Armyrsquos Combat Vehicle Modernization Strategy

The Army is currently sees a requirement for three distinct lightweight combat vehicles in maneuver formations An Ultra-Light Combat Vehicle a Light Reconnaissance Vehicle and a Light Tank These distinctly different capabilities are intended initially to enable the Infantry Brigade Combat Team to execute forcible entry operations but may have far more broad application As the new Army Operating Concept outlines a need for greater expeditionary maneuver capability expressed as scalabletailorable force packages so we must seek the right combinations of different light weight platforms We also see the need for horizontal technological insertions across platforms to generate greater capability for maneuver formations
