8 fiscal years of this program as published (FY2019–FY2026): a line through the actuals (filled dots), with the enacted (hollow circles) and request (diamonds) markers each edition reported. Read it for direction, not for precision — this program's actuals line rises across the span. The grid below is the same data as text, one cited figure per cell.

The vertical scale does not start at zero: the baseline sits just below this program’s smallest year, so a low point on this line is not a small amount. Read the shape for direction and the grid below for the figures.

Description

Mission — Humanitarian Demining

This Program Element (PE) develops, demonstrates and validates cost-effective technologies for use in humanitarian demining via Outside Continental United States (OCONUS) operational field evaluations. This PE's low-cost and highly effective technology reduces the landmine and unexploded ordnance (UXO) / improvised explosive devise (IED) threat to deployed United States (US) forces and the local population. This PE coordinates with the Department of State's Weapons Removal and Abatement Program, the Department of Defense (DoD) Humanitarian Mine Action (HMA) programs of the Combatant Commands (CCMDs), and international mine action organizations and foreign militaries. New technology requirements and areas of emphasis are identified and validated at annual Requirements Workshop and UXO/IED Working Group Meetings. Technology investments are prioritized using the results of these meetings and CCMD security cooperation and theater campaign plan HMA objectives. This PE advances the state-of-the-art of demining technologies and evaluates these technologies utilizing host nation humanitarian demining partners. This PE supports and bolsters the CCMD stability operations mission as directed under Department of Defense Instruction (DODI) 3000.05 to foster mil-to-mil engagement, and bolster economic security and development with partner nations worldwide. Additionally, this PE fosters nations' mine action capacity while improving DoD's visibility and access, generating long-term positive perceptions of DoD and the US, and fostering collaborative relationships with host nation governments. It also directly supports the National Defense Strategy through ensuring common domains remain open and free. This PE utilizes a research and development plan based on operational test data gained through Operational Field Evaluations (OFEs). These OFEs provide this PE a unique capability to collect this data against live mines/UXO in actual minefields around the world. This data is unavailable to any other DoD organization. This OFE data drives future humanitarian demining investment decisions and is shared and leveraged by the U.S. Army's Army Futures Command programs to further improve U.S. forces' technologies. In addition, this PE provides mine and UXO detector training to the CCMDs at the Humanitarian Demining Training Center (HDTC) in support of Military to Military training and partnerships. This PE supports the DoD's strategic guidance to address instability and reduce the demand for significant US force commitments to stability operations; with DODI 3000.05 (Stability Operations) and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction (CJCSI) 3207.01C (Department of Defense Support to Humanitarian Mine Action) to reduce the social, economic and environmental impact of landmines and unexploded ordnance. This PE will be executed by the Army Futures Command (AFC).

Justification

Accomplishments & Planned Programs (2)

Humanitarian Demining Technologies

This effort adapts commercial-off-the-shelf equipment, integrates mature technologies, and leverages research and development activity within the Army, particularly the AFC DEVCOM Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Combat Systems, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Tactical Countermine mission area. This effort supports the DoD HMA programs of the CCMDs and aims to improve existing technologies for mine/UXO detection, technical survey/area reduction, mechanical mine/UXO clearance, vegetation clearance, and mechanical mine neutralization.

No awards are linked to this program element at high or medium confidence — the budget→award crosswalk only asserts links it can defend, and this line has none yet.

Lobbying mentions

No Senate LDA lobbying filing in the tracked data mentions this program element by code or alias.

Oversight

Department-level designation (not specific to this program)

GAO lists 5 high-risk areas for DOD as a whole. That designation covers the department, not Humanitarian Demining. No program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.
