• Multi-purpose test complex including DOD’s premiere Fire Safety Test Enclosure (FSTE) and fire survivability test ranges
  
• Capabilities to support the full spectrum of fire testing from laboratory to full scale (for the web version need to update FPT full-spectrum video clip)
  
• Complete testing capabilities to determine effects of simulated and actual ballistic threats upon combat vehicle crew survivability
  
• Ability to test and compare performance of fire extinguishing agents in a wide-range of applications and operational scenarios (combat vehicle engine compartments and crew compartments; hand-held fire extinguishers, ship structures; buildings, automotive systems, aviation, etc.)
  
• Ability to determine critical fire extinguishing agent performance parameters such as:
  - Fire out time
  - Resultant chemical speciation and concentrations
  - Thermal effects on crew and equipment
  
• Asset fire protection available at test sites
  
• Test sites support direct-fire engagement of hard and soft targets by gun and missile threats; mine attach; air burst and static firing; vehicle fire suppression; ammunition compartment testing; arena testing; rocket sled and compressed air gun or launching threats available
  
• Comprehensive insensitive munitions testing capability (MIL-STD=2105B)
  - Fast Cook-Off
  - Slow Cook-Off
  - Bullet Impact
  - Fragmentation Impact
  - Sympathetic Detonation
  
• Multi-purpose test sites adaptable for environmental technology demonstration
