Joint Service Chemical and Biological Defense Program FY00-02 ...

Program Description:Using active Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) technology, the Artemis will be a real-time, standoff detection system for chemical agentcontamination monitoring and avoidance, as well as for dewarning and indicating areas for decontamination. The use of a standoff systemallows for advance warning of a chemical agent attack. The system will detect chemical agent aerosols, vapor, and surface contamination, andgives precise ranging information. Enhanced early warning from this standoff system will allow the warfighter to avoid contaminated areas ordon full protective equipment if avoidance is not possible, thus maximizing the warfighters ability to complete the mission.FY00 Accomplishments:• Initiated Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) and Concept Exploration (CE).FY01 Objectives:• Continue CE and complete AoA.FY02 Objectives:• Complete performance specification and update the Acquisition Strategy, Acquisition Plan, Acquisition Program Baseline, and Command,Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Support (C4ISR) Plan. Finalize and issue Request forProposal (RFP), conduct source selection for prototype development contractor, conduct Alternative Systems Review of draft system workbreakdown structure, preliminary functional baseline, and draft system specification.• Finalize Systems Architecture and Systems Specification through a Joint Systems Engineering Integrated Product Team (IPT).• Update Simulation Based Acquisition Strategy and Simulation Support Plan to identify the effective use of modeling and simulationthroughout the system life cycle. Update/validate the virtual prototype model to support design of early prototype system. Evaluate infraredspectra scene generator equipment in support of virtual testing.• Conduct, as an integral part of the systems engineering process, a supportability analysis. Conduct initial Joint Training Planning ProcessMethodology and develop initial Joint System Training Plan. Develop acquisition logistics support plan for Milestone (MS) B through aJoint Logistics/Product Support IPT.• Develop test methodology in support of the test strategy and finalize initial Test & Evaluation Master Plan for MS B through a Joint Test &Evaluation IPT.• Further mature key components of a solid state LIDAR system to develop a system architecture and to reduce overall programmatic risk byutilizing Advanced Component Development.ArtemisFY02 Acquisition Phase: System Development and Demonstration PhaseFY00 FY01 FY02 FY03 FY04 FY05 FY06 FY07MilestonesMS BMS COther EventsCEAoASystem Requirements ReviewDevelopment Test (DT) IDT IIOperational AssessmentLow Rate Initial Production (LRIP)Operational Test1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 411
