SHIP-TO-SHORE MANEUVER, EXPLORATION AND EXPERIMENTATION ADVANCED NAVAL TECHNOLOGY EXERCISE 2017
Ship-to-Shore Maneuver, Exploration and Experimentation Advanced Naval Technology Exercise 2017
Marines are field-testing more than 50 different new technologies in an exercise that provides an opportunity for warfighters to assess emerging technologies and innovative engineering in support of amphibious assault operations. Field-testing of technology platforms are across six mission areas including early reconnaissance, threat identification, reconnaissance and threat elimination, maneuver ashore, combat power ashore and amphibious command, control , communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. Technologies that are found to do well, will graduate to a more formal operational evaluation for further testing.
