Special Report: Miniaturized Interconnects for Wearable Soldier Systems
The US military is undergoing a massive transformation driven by the need to develop
new capabilities to conduct military operations in urban areas.
A new doctrine, Military Operations in Urban Terrain (MOUT), identifies the key requirements and capabilities:
Increased Situational Awareness: “Where am I, where is the enemy and what are my orders?”
Increased Weapons Effectiveness: Maximize accuracy and minimize collateral damage.
Increased Individual Agility: Facilitate fast ingress and egress by unencumbering soldiers from heavy equipment.
