  4. OFW Imperatives • Integrated C4ISR and Netted Fires for small team with real time linkages to UofA and Joint networks • 24 hour autonomous mission duration capability for small team ops • Weight reduction to 50 pounds average fighting load per soldier • Deliberate and iterative development of small team requirements based on sound analysis, technology exploration, experimentation and assessment with users in relevant operational environments. End state = approved ORD prior to ATD completion.

  5. Soldier-borne Power Sources Power for Integrated C4ISR, Sensor Fusion, & Training with > 50% Weight Reduction

  6. Enabling Technology: • Lightweight, multifunctional materials • (e.g. ltwt ammo; new protective fibers; CB integration into combat suit) • Miniaturization • Offloading Lethality Survivability Mobility Information Superiority Sustainment Evolution of Soldier-borne Load 96.1 lbs. 88.9 lbs. 75.7 lbs.

  9. Facilitating Collaboration for Objective Force • Soldier system/FCS interface control working group (ICWG) • Requirements integration working group (USAIS/UAMBL) • Cross-membership on program IPTs • Associate contractor agreement between OFW LTI and FCS LSI after downselect to achieve collaborative association • ACAs with other key efforts (e.g., SLICE) • FCS LSI soldier system integration cell • Linked to SS/FCS ICWG

  10. OCSW System • STRIKE - Precision/Massed Fires • Netted Fires • Sychn/coord fires • Modeling and Simulations • Organic Weapons • Lightweight Machinegun • XM29 Blocked interface • XM8 carbine interface • XM307 interface • Non-Lethal Munitions • Organic Weapon Sensors • Combat ID • Fire Control • Sensor Applications • LRF and Lasers • FLIR • CVAM Interface within OFW Netted Comms/Collaborative Situational Awareness Leverage opportunity of best OFW Sensors and Display for specific STRIKE applications
