The NGP, now in its second year, has as its goal the development of 2004 of alternative fire fighting technologies to halon 1301 that can be economically implemented in aircraft, ships, land combat vehciles and critical mission support facilities. This paper describes the first projects and their early results.
Initiated in 1997, the Department of Defense's Next Generation Fire Suppression Technology Program (NGP) is supported by the DoD Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP). The NGP goal is to: "Develop and demonstrate technology for economically feasible, environmentally acceptable and user-safe processes, techniques, and fluids that meet the operational requirements currently satisfied by halon 1301 systems in aircraft."
The Department of Defense's Next Generation Fire Suppression Technology program (NGP) has completed its fourth year of research with a revised goal to develop and demonstrate, by 2005, technology for economically feasible, environmentally acceptable and user-safe processes, techniques, and fluids that meet the operational requirements currently satisfied by halon 1301 systems in aircraft. Research on new flame suppression chemistry, new and improved aerosol suppressants, improved suppressant delivery, and viability of new suppressant technologies has produced substantive results. The NGP has also completed a scoping study on technologies for improved fuel tank inertion.
The Department of Defense's Next Generation FIre Suppression Technology Program (NGP) has completed its seventh year of research with a goal to develop and demonstrate technology for economically feasible, environmentally acceptable and user-safe processes, techniques, and fluids that meet the operational requirements currently satisfied by halon 1301 systems in aircraft. Research on new flame suppression chemistry and improved suppressant delivery has produced substantive results.
Initiated in 1997, the Department of Defense's Next Generation Fire Suppression Technology Program (NGP) has completed its eighth year of research. The NGP goal is to "develop and demonstrate technology for economically feasible, environmentally acceptable and user-safe processes, techniques, and fluids that meet the operational requirements currently satisfied by halon 1301 systems in aircraft."
