Modernizing the Warrior through Army Transformation:

Future Force Warrior (FFW) is the Army’s flagship Science and Technology initiative to develop and demonstrate revolutionary capabilities for Future Force soldier systems. An integrated system of systems approach is being employed to support the Army transformation to a soldier-centric force. The Future Force Warrior is a major pillar of the Future Force strategy, complementing the Future Combat Systems (FCS) program.

FFW notional concepts seek to create a lightweight, overwhelmingly lethal, fully integrated individual combat system, including weapon, head-to-toe individual protection, netted communications, soldier worn power sources, and enhanced human performance. The program is aimed at providing unsurpassed individual & squad lethality, survivability, communications, and responsiveness — a formidable warrior in an invincible team. FFW will also be developed to be fully integrated with FCS.

Lethality Vision: FFW family of lightweight weapons with advanced fire control, optimized for urban combat, and synchronized direct and indirect fires from Future Combat System.

Survivability Vision: Ultra-Lightweight, Low Bulk, Multi-Functional, Full Spectrum Protective Combat Ensemble.

Sensors & Communications (C4ISR) Vision: Netted FFW small unit/teams with robust team communications, state-of-the-art distributed and fused sensors, organic tactical intelligence collection assets, enhanced situational understanding, embedded training, on-the-move planning, and linkage to other force assets.

Power Vision: 72-hour continuous autonomous team operations, high density, low weight/volume, self-generating/re-generating, reliable, safe power source/system.

Mobility Sustainability and Human Performance: Unconstrained vertical and lateral movement at full up combat/assault capability during mission execution. Optimized cognitive and physical fightability, on-board physiological/medical sensor suite with enhanced prompt casualty care.

sweet!

Coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolllll !

I dunno if this project is still active cause they cancelled the "Land Warrior" project

allthough the guy in the black armour looks a helluva lot like an ODST.

Thats where I got my display picture. Now you guys now what my Display pic is.

Sadly, those pictures threw off the layout. They're still cool though. Whatever save more lives.

oooo! I want one! do they come in electric blue?

Its funny that, with all these pictures of the "future warrior", none of them is wearing the new disruptive pattern camo...

Well what about perfromace enhancing gear surely the gear would make them run faster, fump higher and lift hevier things(weapons, ammo, equipment, ect.).

Looks Like The Designers Were Playing To Much Halo On Delta Halo

GO ODST


HOORAH

Interesting.

Looks like we're already starting to see the next revolution in military combat...the question is, how long until the other countries catch up?

yeah its very cool. but i dont think that will be for the army. maybe special forces or seal,or pathfinders. it just look like it would cost alot. about the camo thing. i was watching th history channel, and they showed something about that they( some armor facory) are making a see through camo. if u think the armor is cool. u got to see the weapons. the u.s military kicks butt

looking cool while murdering people, yep thats what its all about

Wow..they do look very cool
