Autonomous Vehicles Carrying Critical Supplies Could be Key to Reducing Risk to Life in Combat Zone

Thursday, February 10th, 2022

Three companies have won contracts worth £3 million each to accelerate autonomous capability that could be used to safely deliver mission-critical supplies to troops engaged in combat territory known as the ‘last mile’.

The British Army tasked the Future Capability Group (FCG) at Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S), the procurement arm of the MOD, with investigating potential solutions for autonomous ‘Last mile supply’ – the delivery of combat supplies crucial to operational success in combat zones.

This work followed a successful first stage investigation by the Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA) and Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl).

The FCG was set up by DE&S to pull through technology at pace and accelerate acquisition at value for money to ensure the UK Armed Forces are provided with the equipment needed to counter ever evolving threats.

Under Project Theseus, it is hoped the use of self-driving air or ground platforms to deliver supplies, including ammunition, clothes, food and fuel, will reduce the need for personnel to risk their life by entering into what are typically hostile environments.

As well as vehicles, FCG see the essential inclusion of dynamic autonomous processing, ordering and delivering fuels, foodstuff and other stores so that troops to have the ‘ease of an Amazon style delivery service’ where they need it most.

Under a potentially ground-breaking commercial model, FCG were able to use a novel process to rigorously evaluate autonomous capabilities from more than 50 primes and SMEs before awarding three contracts totalling £9 million pounds to:

• Horiba Mira (UK)

• Marlborough Comms Ltd (UK)

• Rafael (Israel)

The contracts will help the companies accelerate the development of their systems to try and meet further challenges set by FCG and the British Army.

James Gavin, Head FCG at DE&S, said:

“Our team used a dynamic commercial approach to stimulate industry and draw in over 50 companies who have key technologies in this area. They then worked with pace and agility to identify three suppliers offering potential solutions from a vast amount of industry specialists.

“This project is also a success for the MOD innovation ecosystem. Dstl and DASA stimulated the market and proved the first stages of this project, with Army HQ asking DE&S to explore and accelerate this promising capability area towards exploitation.”

Major Matt McGarvey-Miles, SO2C Robotic and Autonomous Systems, Future Force Development added:

“Robotic and Autonomous System capabilities will play an increasing role in delivering deployed sustainment in the near-future; doing so will increase combat power through increasing mass and tempo of resupply, as well as reducing risk-to-life for our people, leading to an increased probability of mission success.”

Project THESEUS, a two-year Defence Transformation Fund project, is also exploiting the innovation, findings and technology demonstrator investigations delivered by the Dstl Autonomous Last Mile Re-Supply (ALMRS) project.

As reported last month, under Theseus the British Army are exploring using robotic dogs to support troops in dangerous and complex urban environments. The platforms would be used to navigate rough terrain, help deliver supplies in war zones and investigate bombs, significantly reducing the risk to personnel.

Thursday, February 10th, 2022

Mid Weight and Built for Everyday Use, the Garmont T8 FALCON Revolutionizes the AR 670-1 & AFI 36-2903 Compliant Boot Market with U.S. Patriot Partnership

COLUMBIA, SC, February 2, 2022 / USPatriot.com / – – An estimated 811,000 Americans are active duty Army and Air Force, with an additional 813,000 acting in the Guard or Reserve. These service members fuel the tactical market, specifically for Military Compliant uniforms, gear, and footwear. U.S. Patriot and Garmont have proudly worked together for years to bring the best possible products to these Americans, particularly with footwear trusted to carry them through any scenario the Oath requires. It is with that dedication that the two organizations are proud to announce the Garmont T8 Falcon – a U.S. Patriot exclusive. After rigorous testing and consultations from active-duty men and women, the T8 Falcon is GO FOR LAUNCH! This mid-weight military-compliant boot was constructed for everyday use. Taking the most popular features from the NFS and BIFIDA models, the Falcon provides support and comfort with the performance expected from the Garmont T8 product line. In addition to the unbelievable construction that’s been engineered in these boots, both organizations are proud to offer the T8 Falcon at just $150.00. U.S. Patriot has a long history of providing the most-trusted brands and products to America’s Military and Public Safety Officials and have seen that their audience puts their faith in Garmont products based on personal testimonials from enlisted Americans. While everyone comes into the Garmont fold at some point in their Military career, U.S. Patriot hopes to expose younger enlistees to the benefits of Garmont’s dedication to long-lasting, high-quality boots with a price point that will entice any new recruit harboring brand loyalty from tennis shoe manufacturers, years earlier in their service.
