Its objectives are to document the legacy of the system and provide an overview of how acquisition strategy has adapted with respect to key acquisition elements since its inception on September 8, 1993. The product is a document that provides an analysis of the actions taken and the obstacles encountered and how the warfighters, user representatives, materiel developers, and lawmakers dealt with them. The NW need was approved in February 2009. The requirement was to provide improvements for dismounted soldiers in the five specific capability categories of lethality, command and control, mobility, survivability, and sustainment. For a period lasting approximately 20 years, the NW has evolved. Despite the Army’s decision to terminate the Land Warrior, the predecessor to the Nett Warrior system, in FY 2007, the NW’s foundation for follow-on soldier system initiatives had been established. The success of NW will depend on the program’s ability to incorporate soldier-driven design requirements, commercial technology, and thorough system testing. = = ^Åèìáëáíáçå=oÉëÉ~êÅÜ=mêçÖê~ã= do^ar^qb=p`elli=lc=_rpfkbpp=C=mr_if`=mlif`v - i - k^s^i=mlpqdo^ar^qb=p`elli THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK = = ^Åèìáëáíáçå=oÉëÉ~êÅÜ=mêçÖê~ã= do^ar^qb=p`elli=lc=_rpfkbpp=C=mr_if`=mlif`v - ii - k^s^i=mlpqdo^ar^qb=p`elli ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We would like to thank our advisors, Colonel (Retired) Michael Boudreau and Dr. Keith Snider, for their guidance and patience that enabled us to complete our MBA project. Your direction has helped us move from nothing to everything. Without your counsel and sage advice, this MBA project would not have been completed.

Soldier modernization evolution 3 1990s-2000 2000s-2010 2010s-2020 2030s • Future soldiers programs have been in the making for decades, although the concept only started reaching maturity in the 1990s with the advent of France’s FELIN or the US Land Warrior and Objective Force Warrior. In the 1990s, most projects were still heavily influenced by Cold War type engagement scenarios with a strong focus on mechanized infantry. Technological ambitions were huge and envisioned the use of airburst type combined weapons by “super soldiers” fully networked, heavily armed, capable of dissimulating through adaptive camouflage and holograms and able to live of the land thanks to genetically altered seeds able to turn into edible vegetables in hours. • Of the different programs launched in the 1990s, only FELIN reached maturity, albeit in a much different form than originally conceived. The system started to be fielded by the end of the 2000s and made its debut in operations in Afghanistan in 2011.

  • 2005 Army Weapons System Handbook
    Science and Technology The Army Science and Technology (S&T) community is pursuing technologies to enable the Future Force and enhance the capabilities of the Current Force. Science and Technology The most important S&T programs are designated by the Headquarters of the Department of the Army (HQDA) as Army Technology Future Force Technology Areas Objectives (ATOs). ATOs are co-sponsored by the warfighter’s representative, Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC). ATOs lead to the development of S&T products within the cost, schedule, and performance metrics assigned when they are approved. Future Combat Representative ATOs and some other key efforts are included here to relate S&T program opportunities to systems development and Systems Technology demonstration, and acquisition programs. The larger and more complex ATOs—those associated with significant warfighter payoff—may also be designated as Army Advanced Technology Demonstrations (ATDs) or Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD)-approved Advanced Concept Technology Demonstrations (ACTDs). The ATDs and ACTDs are major systems and component-level demonstrations designed to “prove” the technical feasibility and military utility of advanced technology. The ACTDs also provide a limited leave-behind capability for continued evaluation and use while a determination is made regarding whether a formal acquisition program should be pursued. The Army’s S&T investments have been articulated in terms of technology areas. The illustration at left depicts these technology areas in color bands that are relatively proportional to the Army investment in each area. The S&T section of this handbook is organized Future Force according to these technology areas, beginning with the Future Combat Systems (FCS) and ending with Advanced Simulation.
