The S-351 mini-sub is a prototype of the Dry Combat Submersible (DCS). This prototype was established as a means of risk reduction prior to a full commitment to the DCS program. Both of these platforms have an operational need to transit with minimum operator fatigue safely to a pre-defined point and covertly deploy and retrieve SEALS. To meet these operational needs, these platforms require upgra ...

In Phase I Ceebus demonstrated the feasibility of an underwater, acoustic, direct-sequence spread-spectrum communication architecture, including actual data transfers and decoded message recovery. All of the communication algorithms were post-processed and communication was performed with a single piezo transducer. Prototype development is the next step in delivering a system that offers real-time ...

The goal of this contract is to develop sniper, machine gun, and carbine variant lightweight cased intermediate caliber rounds of ammunition that will provide an overmatch against all current 7.62mm and below military calibers used by opposing forces. The innovative variant caliber rounds developed under this SBIR effort also anticipate reducing the weight of the Unites States used AA11 7.62 snipe ...

The overall objective of Phase II is the design, production and testing of hybrid composite pressure vessels with embedded optical fiber monitoring to replace steel flasks. The hybrid flasks represent significant weight and acquisition cost savings that will improve ASDS mission capability and readiness. However, the procedures for conducting nondestructive testing to ascertain the strength proper ...

To perform its unique missions, Naval Special Warfare (NSW) has developed a new class of combatant craft with advanced characteristics, including advanced hull designs for better stability in rough seas and low observable characteristics. As a replacement to the commercial maritime radars currently employed, NSW needs a new Surface Search Phased Array Radar (SSPAR) which can detect, locate, and t ...

The Tactical Assault Light Operator Suit (TALOS) is being developed by the United States Special Operations Command (USSCOM) to provide advanced armor protection for operators. The TALOS platform will be used by operators in hot and cold regions; requiring an active thermal management system to regulate body temperature. In the proposed effort, RINI will develop, test and deliver an active therm ...

The Tactical Assault Light Operator Suit (TALOS) program presents an opportunity to provide Special Operators with unique capabilities to achieve increased situational awareness, lethality, and human performance. In current and future iterations of the TALOS system, a base layer system with integrated physiological monitoring equipment provides insight into Operator health and performance status, ...

The United States Special Operations Command needs the capability to conduct intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance from airborne assets. The Governments objective is to develop an extended range radar prototype system that can track personnel and vehicles in all-weather conditions, during the day and at night, with a Ground Moving Target Indicator and to image personnel or vehicles throu ...

Special Operations Forces that are deployed in austere areas are associated with an increased risk of envenomation. Current treatment uses species-specific or polyvalent antivenins that are generated from the sera of animals immunized with whole venom, necessitating the correct identification of the venomous species and continuous injection of large volume of antibodies at an ICU-capable medical f ...
