FCS – The Soldier
Related Articles
All Soldiers in the Modular Force are part of the Soldier as a
System (SaaS) overarching requirement encompassing everything the
Soldier wears, carries, and consumes to include unit radios, crew
served weapons, and unit specific equipment in the execution of tasks
and duties.
All Soldiers systems will be treated as an integrated System of Systems (SoS).
The FCS Soldier, as defined by Soldier as a System (SaaS), meets the
need to improve the current capability of all Soldiers, regardless of
Military Occupational Specialty (MOS), to perform Army Common Tasks and
functions more efficiently and effectively.
Soldier as a System (SaaS) establishes a baseline for core Soldier
requirements, and establishes the foundation for specific or mission
unique Warrior Programs (Land, Mounted, and Air).
It will present a fully integrated Soldier that provides a balance of
tasks, and mission equipment in support of the Soldier Team, FCS, and
the Future Force.
