Threat Characterization Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E)

DSIAC provided RDT&E for characterizing current and future kinetic and directed energy threats ultimately to increase survivability and develop vulnerability reduction features of specific fixed-wing, unmanned, and rotorcraft platforms. DSIAC developed test plans, conducted analyses,…

Ground Vehicle Survivability and Force Protection (GVS&FP) Educational Program

DSIAC supported the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation (DOT&E) and Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) efforts to develop a GVS&FP educational program. DSIAC provided subject matter expertise and direct input for initial course and text development….

Research and Development (R&D) for Lightweight Combat System Redundancy Concepts

The U.S. Army recognizes that as the enemy continues to evolve asymmetrical strategies to inflict casualties, it must continue to look at new solutions (i.e., in addition to armor) to improve survivability of lightweight combat ground…

Joint Aircraft Survivability Program Support and Studies

DSIAC assisted the Joint Aircraft Survivability Program’s (JASP’s) efforts to develop and disseminate critical scientific and technical information (STI) related to survivability methods to be used by the combat survivability community for evaluating and enhancing…

Systems Analysis of Maneuver, Soldier, Aviation, Air Defense, and Artillery Weapons Systems

DSIAC supported AMSAA with conducting item-level analyses and developing methodology for maneuver, soldier, aviation, air defense, and artillery weapons systems. DSIAC assisted with developing a mid-fidelity minefield effectiveness modeling and simulation tool, associated methodology, and…

Visual Simulation Laboratory (VSL) Methodology and Integration With Existing Survivability, Lethality, and Vulnerability (SLV) Analysis Techniques

The U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL) Survivability/Lethality Analysis Directorate’s (SLAD’s) new VSL is a next-generation, high-performance, and extensible computing framework (and vulnerability assessment simulation) designed to leverage current and next-generation heterogeneous computing architectures. DSIAC supported…

Program Manager Medium and Heavy Tactical Vehicles (PM MHTV) Survivability and Vulnerability Engineering

In support of PM MHTV’s effort to improve system sustainment and implement upgrades, DSIAC researched, identified, and conducted survivability-related analyses on PM MHTV’s proposed system technology updates and sustainment modifications and provided survivability recommendations for…

Weapons Systems Projectile Lethality and Vulnerability Analyses

DSIAC conducted an evaluation of the lethality effectiveness of medium-caliber rounds against given target sets. DSIAC performed a scientific and technical information literature search, completed function testing of projectiles, gathered information about emerging projectiles, and…

The 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing (MAW) Training Range, Outlying [Air]Field (OLF), and Airspace Technical Requirements Analysis

DSIAC holistically researched and analyzed Marine Corps Installations East training venues as they related to 2nd MAW aviation training requirements through 2030, as well as existing and planned training range, OLF, and airspace technology capabilities…

Blast Protection Branch (BPB) Vehicle Underbody Survivability Program Support

The U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL) Weapons and Materials Research Directorate (WMRD) conducts experiments, analysis, software development, and verification, validation, and accreditation (VV&A) activities to support fundamental research in understanding the loading and response of…

Target Vulnerability Assessments and Environmental Weapon Effectiveness Methodology Development

DSIAC provided analytical support to specific projects in the Operational Weaponeering and Analysis (EZW) Division of the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC). The specific projects primarily involved target vulnerability studies, target modeling, Advanced…

Force-on-Force (FoF) Instrumentation Development

DSIAC assisted Marine Corps Operational Test and Evaluation Activity (MCOTEA) in their effort to correctly report critical data relating to the operational survivability of a program. This required developing a new FoF/real time casualty assessment…
