NSWC Collaboration Leads to Rapid Technology Fielding: "Warfighters on board riverine assault boats (RAB) supporting efforts in Operation Iraqi Freedom are now safer from radio-controlled improvised explosive devices (RCIED) because of collaborative efforts between two Naval Surface Warfare Centers (NSWCs).
NSWC Crane and NSWC Carderock teamed to complete Counter RCIED Electronic Warfare (CREW) system installations on RABs six months ahead of schedule. The systems prevent enemy RCIED detonation, providing significant protection to warfighters patrolling waterways in Iraq."
