![]() Our adversaries will be trying to stop us, though. “If we aim to conduct operations as part of a MAGTF or drug task force, it necessitates a World War II style island-hopping campaign, requiring safe access to the islands. This bleeding-edge robotic technology-along with its integrated family of capabilities-strives to secure safe maneuverability for Marines within the littoral regions, extending support to the explosive ordnance disposal community and enhancing the overall service proficiency.Īccording to Product Manager for Explosive Hazard Defeat Rick Daley, LEON is a tool which will allow the support of ship-to-shore and shore-to-ship lane clearing operations more safely and effectively. This innovative amphibious, unmanned robot system is specifically designed to detect, locate, reacquire, mark to avoid, render safe/neutralize, recover, exploit, and dispose of underwater explosive threats in the very shallow water, surf zone, beach zone and littoral transition points. ![]() The LEON family of systems encompasses various capabilities, among which the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Remotely Operated Vehicle-or ROV-stands out as an integral component. I have had the honor to work with Ajax on several project and have always found them to be a true partner in every aspect.As the Marine Corps prepares to take the fight to the global littorals, Marine Corps Systems Command’s Program Manager for Explosive Hazard Defeat’s Littoral Explosive Ordnance Neutralization-LEON-integrated product team is working on fielding a family of systems to strengthen Marine Corps mine warfare capabilities.ĭesigned to address the concerns outlined in the Littoral Operations in a Contested Environment guidance, these systems fortify Marines’ mine warfare capabilities as the Corps continues with the strategic modernization outlined in former Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. David H. Ajax has been a model team member working hand in hand with the architect, multiple users, multiple government agencies, and the subcontractors to develop the most functional and cost-effective solution available to all issues on the project. No details in this work can be approached as a typical construction condition and concealed elements are critical to the project’s long terms success and operational function. “The complexities of this project have placed unique and unusual demands on the entire project team. This reduces the energy requirement to move air in the building by 75%. Energy-efficient cooling is done using overhead chilled beams, a process which involves passing air over a chilled water coil to provide comfortable temperatures, supplemented by air flowing from an air handling system. ![]() Most of the interior walls in the main building are modular and can be easily dismantled and reconfigured as is all the integrated and modular furnishings.A raised floor system sits 16 inches above the slab to allow for future flexibility and ease of installation of electrical, computer, data systems, as well as the return airflow. ![]()
