The Defense Advance Research Projects Agency (DARPA) looks to achieve infantry squad overmatch through the incorporation of advanced technology in their Squad-X Program. In terms of an infantry squad, overmatch is the ability to immediately overwhelm an opposing force and continue on with its mission. Furthermore, DARPA is seeking specific technological information and innovative ideas that can be used to inform a potential new program focused on demonstrating the advantages of an organically digitized and interconnected dismounted squad. Our team is engineering simulation solutions for analysis of the effectiveness of potential technologies. Through use of simulation programs, such as IWARS, OneSAF, COMPOSER, and VBS2 simulation programs, the team is able to incorporate Squad-X technologies into battlefield simulations in order to target specific gaps in a squad's ability to achieve overmatch.
