Department of <strong>Defense</strong> (DoD)<br />
<strong>Non</strong>-<strong>Lethal</strong> <strong>Weapons</strong> (NLW) <strong>Program</strong><br />
• Established in 1996 with the Commandant of<br />
the Marine Corps as the DoD NLW Executive Agent<br />
• The <strong>Joint</strong> <strong>Non</strong>-<strong>Lethal</strong> <strong>Weapons</strong> Directorate serves as<br />
the Executive Agent’s day to day management office,<br />
coordinating activities with the Services, Coast Guard,<br />
and other government agencies<br />
General James F. Amos<br />
Commandant of the U.S.<br />
Marine Corps<br />
• The Executive Agent has a research budget dedicated to developing and<br />
advancing the suite of non-lethal weapons available to U.S. forces<br />
• The military Services (Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps) are responsible<br />
for NLW procurement and sustainment<br />
“<strong>Non</strong>-lethal effects are part of the Department of <strong>Defense</strong> portfolio of capabilities that<br />
enhance the <strong>Joint</strong> Force Commander’s ability to act in a timely manner to detect, deter,<br />
prevent, defeat, or, if necessary, mitigate effects of an attack.” General James F. Amos<br />

DoD NLW Definition<br />
“<strong>Weapons</strong> that are explicitly designed and primarily employed so as to<br />
incapacitate personnel or materiel, while minimizing fatalities,<br />
permanent injury to personnel, and undesired damage to property and<br />
the environment.”<br />
Key Attributes: Incapacitation and Reversibility<br />
Representative Mission Applications<br />
•Humanitarian Assistance/Disaster Relief<br />
•Vehicle/Vessel Stopping<br />
•Clearing Structures/Facilities<br />
•Check-Point /Convoy Security<br />
•Crowd Control<br />
•FOB/Facility Security<br />
•Maritime Stability Operatoins<br />
•Support to Civil Authorities<br />
•Detainee Operations<br />
•Counter Piracy<br />

Risk of Significant Injury (RSI)<br />
• RSI is a measure of reversibility<br />
• Health care capability (HCC) indexes are used as the basis to<br />
determine RSI from NLW.<br />
• RSI is considered for both counterpersonnel<br />
and counter-material<br />
technologies<br />
RSI is measured as a<br />
weapon’s likelihood to<br />
cause injury resulting in<br />
HCC1 or HCC 2<br />
• RSI is relevant to all<br />
NLW research and<br />
technology development<br />
efforts<br />
