Survivability/Lethality/Vulnerability (SLV) Methodologies to Support Technology for Current and Future Force
Survivability/Lethality Analysis Directorate (SLAD) will continue to enhance and improve the System of Systems Survivability Simulation (S4) Model in conjunction with their Physical Science Lab/New Mexico State University (PSL/NMSU) partners. SLAD will continue development of MUVES 3 to improve capabilities and improve the SLV modeling environment.
SLV Analyses to Support Ballistic Missile and Short Range Air Defense Systems
Air Defense and Missile Defense survivability/ lethality analyses:
SLAD provides analysis and recommendations to improve 
battlefield survivability, working with the Army Program Manager /Program Executive Officer (PM/PEO) and the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to direct weapon system development efforts and structure product improvement programs; provide the independent evaluator support to milestone decisions and system evaluations; and provide technical analyses to decision makers to formulate program/productions decisions.Survivability and Lethality Analyses in Support of Future Combat Systems (FCS)
This mission area supports the FCS Brigade Combat Team. SLAD will investigate survivability and vulnerabilities of Army ground and aerial manned and unmanned combat systems against battlefield threats. Analyses will consist of pre-shot predictions and post-shot ballistic damage assessments; behind armor debris analyses; information warfare and electronic jamming assessments; and support to major milestone decisions.
SLV Analysis to Support Information Operations Survivability
This mission area analyzes command, control, communications, computers and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems against the field threat environments of information and electronic warfare. Investigations are conducted in both laboratory and field environments at both the individual asset level and at the network level to include system of systems analysis. Results of these analyses, which include mitigation techniques, are provided to the CIO G6, PEOs/PMs, and AEC.
SLV Analysis to Support Combat Systems
This mission area supports Aviation, Ground/Soldier and Munition combat systems. SLAD will investigate survivability, vulnerability and lethality of Army combat systems against battlefield threats, recommending fixes to improve battlefield survivability while reducing vulnerability and providing analyses to Army Program Managers/Program Executive Officers (PMs/PEOs) and other Services to support Milestone Decisions and system evaluations. Analyses will consist of pre-shot predictions, post-shot analysis, pre-shot and post-shot damage assessments of vehicles, personnel and structures, behind armor debris analyses, Hardware-in-the Loop (HWIL) simulations, electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) analyses, information operations analyses, etc.
