Business Wire
Leonardo DRS, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRS) announced today that it has
successfully demonstrated its On Board Vehicle Power (OBVP)
technology to provide vehicle-based electrical power in support of
vehicle-based weapon systems.
The OBVP demonstration was part of a recent U.S. Army
Operational User Assessment focused on vehicle to vehicle, and
vehicle to grid power generation and power management. DRS
installed its OBVP systems on the THAAD Launch Control Station
FMTV, Tactical Operation Station FMTV, and the THAAD Launcher HEMTT
for this assessment.
The DRS OBVP system is a vehicle-based generator using a
permanent magnet machine integrated within an Allison transmission
that provides electrical power to support operations in remote
areas. To meet the Army’s power needs, OBVP systems are integrated
within the vehicle transmission to generate up to 55kW of usable
electrical power while on the move, or up to 125kW of usable
electrical power while stationary. The DRS OBVP system has proven
it can increase battlefield agility, reduce deployment logistics
costs, and improve mission readiness with no impact on vehicle
functionality.
“This successful demonstration once again showed how
vehicle-based electrical power generation can be employed in remote
areas where the concern about contested logistics is a reality,”
said Bill Guyan, senior vice president and general manager of the
Leonardo DRS Land Electronics business unit. “Our OBVP technology
is a mature system and purpose-built to be a force-multiplier by
reducing deployment logistics and provide a range of power
solutions to the growing power need. It gives users clean
electrical power anywhere, and anytime.”
The Operational User Assessment was conducted at McGregor Range
in New Mexico. The event was the culminating event of the Secure
Tactical Advance Mobile Power (STAMP) Joint Capabilities Technology
Demonstration (JCTD) sponsored by Army Futures Command. The
objective of the STAMP JCTD effort is to rapidly demonstrate and
deliver a significant operational capability to the Combatant
Commands.
This demonstration was the latest for the DRS OBVP system which
has shown its proven capabilities in various technical
demonstrations and evaluations to include the Army Expeditionary
Warfare Experiment, Network Integration Evaluation, the U.S. Marine
Corps Limited User Test, and other THAAD missile support operations
vehicle tests. OBVP is a mature system that is ready to address
mission power requirements.
