If you had a gunshot detection issue at a FOB, FSRs were required to travel to the system location, repair the system, and return to their point of origin,” Lane said.
Support Centers [RSCs] and 26 FOBs,” added time traveling to repair the system, located at the CREW RSCs and FOBs. Additionally, FLIR has increased sup port, because the CREW FSRs can also support gunshot detection,” she said.
Before leaving FOBs on missions, FSRs are able to ensure that CREW and Gun shot Detector
systems are loaded and
operating properly. The FSRs rely on training that they receive on CREW systems at the CREW University at Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD, and on the Gunshot Detector Bragg, NC.

CONCLUSION “Teaming with CREW was the absolute right thing to do, as our FSR missions are LTC William “Matt” Russell, PM FLIR. saved, and support increased across my portfolio if I teamed with CREW. FLIR and CREW are continuing this effort and branching it out to other program both programs, and our taxpayers.”
The LSS project is estimated to save approximately $10.8 million. “By work [Lane] has saved millions while maintain ing the same level of support our Soldiers in harm’s way need. Clarissa has been able
LEVERAGING EXPERTISE
Program Executive Office Intelligence, Electronic Warfare, and Sensors is optimizing FSR support across Project Manager Electronic Warfare by cross-leveraging FSRs to support Quick Reaction Capability programs for Product Manager (PM) CREW, Product Director Raven Fire, and PM Prophet. Here, Soldiers assigned to 201st Battlefield Surveillance Brigade train on the latest version of the Prophet system, used by military intelligence Soldiers to collect enemy communication signals that can be analyzed for use by unit commanders, March 20 at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA.

to all work together,” noted LTC Bruce Ryba, Product Manager CREW. “Then there is millions more of savings she has this project are exactly what our Soldiers and our taxpayers need,” he said.
Lane suggested that this model can be used throughout the PEO and within house solutions. “We are optimizing FSR support across PM Electronic Warfare by Reaction Capability programs for PM CREW, PD [Product Director] Raven Fire, and PM Prophet,” Lane said. “We porting PM FLIR. We are fully optimizing our FSRs and theater infrastructure, and support costs.”
