Abstract

The Soldier Integrated Protective Ensemble (SIPE) Advanced Technology Demonstration (ATD) has proven to be an ambitious and farsighted project. It is based on a modular subsystem approach which paves the way toward the development of a head-to-toe integrated fighting system for the dismounted infantry soldier. This system is composed of the soldier and everything worn, consumed and carried for use in a tactical environment. Having successfully proven itself, the SIPE ATD will now transition into follow-on programs which will field and demonstrate soldier system prototypes.
