To ensure that
the Land Warrior – Stryker
Interoperable (LW-SI) system is Soldier
friendly and fightable, Omega conducts
system level tests of the Soldier-equipment
interface. Our personnel conduct Fightability
Assessments (FA) of the LW system
and design and evaluate Protective
Clothing and Individual Equipment
(PCIE) changes.
Our FAs evaluate
how the LW-SI system impacts the
Soldier. They look at tactical
operations, Manpower and Personnel
Integration (MANPRINT)/ Human Factors
Engineering (HFE) concerns and
issues, weapons subsystems and
their impacts on the Soldier and
lethality, and potential Tactics,
Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs)
derived from conducting these assessments.
FA outcomes allow contractors and
users to identify, track, and assess
the system’s progress as
it relates to the most important
part – the Soldier. |
