Power Management And Load Carriage Focus Day,
Afternoon Of 3rd June 2008
Improve Battlefield Endurance Through Innovative Power Sources
YOUR CHALLENGE...
Balancing electrical output and load carriage to power a multi-functional soldier system is your most enduring challenge. How can performance be increased without impacting weight and ergonomics and ultimately soldier effectiveness? Power experts agree the situation is now urgent, as by 2020 soldier systems will demand approximately 10 times more power than now. But with a multitude of directions to take, which battery technologies should you invest in?
