First Strike Rations (FSR)

The FSR is a compact, eat-on-the-move assault ration designed to be consumed during the first 72 hours of intense conflict by forward deployed Warfighters. The FSR is substantially reduced in weight and cube and enhances Warfighter consumption, nutritional intake, and mobility.

Why Is It Needed?

The FSR is designed to improve tactical mobility and meet the maneuver sustainment needs of the joint Warfighter during highly mobile, high intensity operations.

Technology:

The FSR takes advantage of major advancements in food processing, preservation, nutrient delivery, and packaging technologies to include innovative methods in intermediate moisture foods, glucose optimization, and novel packaging materials and configurations.

Key Features / Benefits:

Enhanced mobility…All components of this lightweight ration are familiar, eat-out-of-hand foods that require little or no preparation by the Warfighter. Innovative packaging technologies enable the beverages to be reconstituted and consumed directly from the drink pouch.

Characteristics…The FSR has a minimum two year shelf life at 80°F and provides an average of 2900 calories per day. The FSR has nine meals per shipping container consisting of three each of three different menus.

Lightweight…When compared to three MREs, the FSR weight and cube of one day’s subsistence is reduced by approximately 50%.

Comments:

  • The FSR has been extensively tested by the Warfighter during OEF/OIF on an asymmetric battlefield and received positive feedback.

  • The FSR will part of a continuous product improvement program based on this Warfighter feedback.

  • The FSR has been approved by the Office of the Surgeon General and will be available for procurement in August 2007.
