1. Maneuver Support Center of Excellence (MSCoE) Capability Development & Integration Directorate (CDID) Briefing to NDIA 14 March 11

2. Landpower in the 21 st Century Land Force Qualities in the 21 st Century: Landpower: The ability to achieve decisive results on land Land Forces – the military component of Landpower Role of Landpower: To provide the Nation with a full spectrum capability to conduct these essential strategic functions: Lethal Sustainable Interoperable Versatile Expeditionary Agile Land Power consists of US and Coalition Armies, Marines, SOF, Interagency teams, and joint integrating effects delivered by Air Force and Navy in the land domain Engage Deter Prevent Compel Integrate 2

3. The Army’s Integrated Acquisition Process Warfighting Capability Articulating the needs of the Warfighter by producing authoritative requirements to the S&T and Acquisition Communities 1.Basic principles observed and reported 2.Technology concept and/or application formulated 3.Analytical and experimental critical function and/or characteristic proof of concept

4. Warfighter Outcomes Stand alone statements that articulate capabilities needed for the Army Warfighter by FY 2024 and include: –Clearly articulated description of capability. –Rationale explaining reason for the capability. –Metrics to describe achievement of the capability.

5. Enhance & restore cognitive and physical performance Soldiers incorporated into highly trained and competent small units Access on potential vs. high school performance Mitigate the increase in physiological and psychological stress Improving mental, moral and physical capacity and performance Human Dimension Live, virtual, constructive and mixed venues Impart more skills, faster, at lower cost, with greater retention Non-traditional home station training techniques Train prior to employment Enhance and account for individual proficiencies and learning rates Training Enhanced agility to operate worldwide, reducing weight and volume Sufficient pulsed power enabling advanced lethality options Increased continuous power and fuel economy Provide dismounted Soldiers twice available power at half the tactical wgt Power and Energy Beyond-line-of-sight Optimized for mobile operations Increase access to the individual Soldier Mission Command Network Detect, identify and neutralize CBRNE obstacles and WMD Provide for safe standoff distance Maintain momentum while protecting Soldiers and platforms Counter- IED and Mines Big 5 Warfighter Outcomes That Guide Army S&T Investment

6. MSCoE Related Warfighter Outcomes Standoff Detection of Explosive Pre-Cursors Terrain Data Generation Geospatial Information & Services (GI&S) Computer-aided Analysis and Reasoning Standoff detection, diagnosis, render safe and neutralization of explosive (IEDs, UXOs, mines) and CBRN hazards Rapid construction and repair of combat routes and trails Rapidly Cross Wet and Dry Gaps Counter IED and Mine Combined Warfighter Outcome Standoff detection, diagnosis, render safe and neutralization of explosive (IEDs, UXOs, mines) and CBRN hazards Active/Passive Protection Protection Stationary Hemispherical Area Protection Improved Active Protection Systems

7. MSCoE - Industry and Academia Relationships Mature “Gateways” to Leverage Industry & Academia Use of surrogates (government partners) Cooperative Technology Alliances (CTAs) SBIR, STTR, BAA RDEC Partnerships -- Industry & Universities New Ideas to Leverage Industry & Academia Direct contact – “difficult to easy” Building Partnership – JIIM-IA Ofc Leonard Wood Institute (LWI) Articulating the needs of the Warfighter by producing authoritative requirements to the S&T and Acquisition Communities

8. 8 Leonard Wood Institute – LWI Works directly with Warfighters’ Representative A leg in both world – hence the dual color ring Returns all knowledge discovered directly to MSCoE and Army Corporate Body By it nature - looks for potential solutions in different locations than the Army MSCoE Warfighter Outcomes Industry Academia Like a watch - Located in the same case as the Acquisition Process, but working on a different layer
