Published purpose
The project aims to increase dismounted soldier protection from both kinetic and non-kinetic threats in complex urban environments, while simultaneously decreasing overall soldier discomfort. Investigate innovations in thermal regulation, moisture management, all-weather protection, flexible and breathable armour gel, and how each of these innovations interact with one another and with overall soldier comfort.
