Improved Combat Vehicle 

Crewman (iCVC) Uniform

• Where we are:

 iCVC is not well received by the armor community (hot, heavy, poor 

fit)

 Some Soldiers are authorized by command to wear Advanced 

Aircrew Combat Uniform (A2CU) or Flame Resistant Advanced 

Combat Uniform (FR ACU) instead of iCVC

• Where we are going:

 Request for Information (RFI) for novel, new Flame Resistant 

materials that are significantly lower in cost in 2QFY22

 Looking at alternative uniforms for potential common solution with 

other services

 Conduct a small user evaluation in 3/4QFY22
Lightweight Performance 

Hood (LPH)

• Where we are:

 Published an RFI in 3QFY20

 Received a number of responses

 Down selected to five LPH designs

• Where we are going:

 User evaluation planned for FY21 moved to 3/4QFY22

 Identify the best LPH option(s) from user evaluation

 Create a commercial item description
