The JPM NBC CA is conducting the NGCD1 program to fill known operational gaps in chemical detection. NGCD1, now named XM12 Aerosol & Vapor Chemical Agent Detector (AVCAD), will detect traditional and advanced threat vapors and liquid and solid aerosols. The AVCAD will detect, identify, alarm, and report the presence of foreign variants of aerosol and vapor chemical hazards. The AVCAD will also include a wireless remote alarm capability. The AVCAD will operate in both dismounted and mounted configurations (a portable system capable of detecting and identifying vapor and aerosol chemical hazards to meet AVCAD requirements). The U.S. Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps will use the AVCAD to conduct or support their missions. These missions include monitoring, collective protection, base defense, decontamination, unmasking, dismounted reconnaissance, mounted reconnaissance (on the Stryker Nuclear Biological Chemical Reconnaissance Vehicle (NBCRV)), shipboard (replacing the current shipboard chemical detection system), and aviation (CH-47 Chinook, OH-60 Blackhawk, and CH-72 platforms for surveillance and survey of cargo and personnel).
