Description

Description — Base Defense Systems (BDS)

Base Defense Systems (BDS) includes Non-Intrusive Inspection System (NIIS) (M90108), Ground-Based Operational Surveillance System (Expeditionary) (G-BOSS(E)) (M90212), and Security Surveillance System (SSS) (M90220) [formerly known as Tactical Security System (TSS)]. Non-Intrusive Inspection System (NIIS) (M90108) is a family of systems that inspects for the presence of explosives, weapons and other contraband in vehicles, cargo containers and personnel from a distance providing stand-off ballistic and blast protection. All systems are either mobile or fully re-locatable. It is a force multiplier that maximizes protection of personnel, equipment and installations while minimizing manpower requirements. NIIS provides the capability to non-intrusively inspect vehicles, cargo containers and personnel for the presence of explosives, weapons or other contraband which can kill or injure Soldiers and destroy critical warfighting materiel. NIIS supports the urgent need for Counter-Improvised Explosive Device equipment to support military operations. Ground-Based Operational Surveillance System (Expeditionary) (G-BOSS(E)) (M90212) will provide improved persistent surveillance capabilities, network integration and force protection capabilities utilizing advanced sensor configurations. G-BOSS(E) provides enhanced surveillance and observation in expeditionary environments utilizing modular trailer-based sensor configurations; Medium variant (mid-sensor height) for small to medium size bases, and Heavy variant (high-level sensor height) for large contingency base camps. G-BOSS(E) will operate in a stand-alone mode or as part of an integrated network utilizing government-owned software, be easily operated and maintained, and be rugged enough to support employment in expeditionary operations worldwide. Security Surveillance System (SSS) (M90220) [formerly known as Tactical Security System (TSS)] provides a modular, scalable, lightweight, rapidly deployable, ground based security and surveillance Family of Systems designed for hasty emplacement to support short and long term security, surveillance and detection missions. The system will be tailorable to support various missions including internment/resettlement operations; perimeter security; internal security within base camps or installations; and external security outside the perimeter. SSS will be employed at fixed, semi-fixed or expeditionary sites providing all weather imaging during daylight/twilight and during periods of limited visibility regardless of environmental conditions to enhance the Commander's situational awareness and increase Soldier survivability. SSS is designed to be employed as a standalone force protection system, in a layered effort or integrated with additional force protection systems including motion, acoustic, seismic, surface and subterranean detection technologies. SSS will address four of the five base camp core protection/security capabilities identified in the IBD Concept of Operations including perimeter security, entry control, persistent surveillance and warning and alerting. SSS can be employed in support of contingency, short-notice, early-entry operations in a variety of weather and terrain from open desert to complex urban environments. SSS will assist in countering individuals and provide clandestine observation of detainees, individuals, either on foot or in vehicles from intruding into areas designated for security purposes. SSS will allow the Commander to detect and observe enemy or adversarial forces from a distance prior to entering the base area of operations. This advanced warning will allow the Commander to better deploy forces in a more effective manner to mitigate threat. Overseas Operations Costs (OOC) funds this requirement in FY 2026. In accordance with Section 1815 of the FY 2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181), this item is necessary for use by the active and reserve components of the Armed Forces for homeland defense missions, domestic emergency responses, and providing military support to civil authorities.

Justification

Justification — Base Defense Systems (BDS)

FY 2026 Base procurement dollars in the amount of $0.143M supports the following: ------------ FY 2026 M90108 / Non-Intrusive Inspection System (NIIS) - Base procurement dollars of $0.143M provides for the procurement of replacement parts required to return damaged equipment to full operational capability or replace lost equipment. Due to combat support operations in Kuwait and Iraq, NIIS systems were damaged or components lost due to an ARCENT-directed rapid retrograde and other operations. This included a damaged T25 vehicle scanner boom-arm ($0.118M), a T25 vehicle scanner damaged in transit ($0.008M), and lost equipment replacement due to a rapid retrograde ($0.017M). ------------ Overseas Operations Costs (OOC) funds this requirement in the amount of $0.143M for FY 2026 Budget Estimate. Overseas Operations Costs (OOC) are those financed with former Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) funding. In accordance with Section 1815 of the FY2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181), this item is necessary for use by the active and reserve components of the Armed Forces for homeland defense missions, domestic emergency responses, and providing military support to civil authorities. All quantities and funding are for Active Components. -------------
