    ERDC’s SUBMAT enables successful beach landings during JLOTS25

    A team from the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) rolled out an innovation designed to solve a tough expeditionary logistics challenge—getting heavy military vehicles from ship to shore without getting stuck. Armed with expertise and a groundbreaking technology called Submersible Matting (SUBMAT), ERDC researchers played a critical role in supporting beach landing operations during Joint Logistics Over-the-Shore operation (JLOTS 25), part of this year’s Balikatan, an annual exercise with the U.S. and Philippine military.

    As U.S. forces begin a simulated mission, ERDC's Robotics for Engineer Operations (REO) unmanned bulldozer, designed by research engineers from ERDC’s CERL, GSL, GRL and ITL, lines up with the breach lane to support maneuver operations.

    ERDC robotics team advances future of combat engineering at PC-C5

    A team from the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) recently played a key role in a major Army exercise called Project Convergence Capstone 5 (PC-C5). During this event, ERDC’s Robotics for Engineer Operations (REO) put their robotic technologies to the test in realistic, hands-on scenarios that simulate combat situations, showing how systems perform and hold up under pressure, making an important contribution to Army readiness.
