00:07.540 --> 00:11.400
This technology is in

00:11.400 --> 00:14.940
place at 100 sites across the Army ,

00:15.290 --> 00:18.440
of everyone . Access control points are

00:18.450 --> 00:20.672
installations . First line of defense .

00:20.840 --> 00:23.062
The active vehicle barrier system being

00:23.062 --> 00:25.284
tested behind me is designed to protect

00:25.284 --> 00:27.062
the people who live and work on

00:27.062 --> 00:29.380
military bases worldwide . This system

00:29.480 --> 00:31.640
is the largest in the army . It's

00:31.640 --> 00:33.751
important to have this kind of system

00:33.751 --> 00:35.807
in place to protect the installation

00:35.807 --> 00:37.862
population from a high speed vehicle

00:37.862 --> 00:39.973
threat . We're gonna raise it in test

00:39.973 --> 00:42.140
mode and then I'm gonna turn the panel

00:42.140 --> 00:44.140
power off . What makes this various

00:44.140 --> 00:46.630
system unique is the number of barriers

00:46.640 --> 00:48.696
that are in the response zone . More

00:48.696 --> 00:50.640
than a million vehicles enter Fort

00:50.640 --> 00:52.696
Belvoir each month . Welcome to Fort

00:52.696 --> 00:54.862
Belvoir . This system is a key tool to

00:54.862 --> 00:56.862
manage that volume of traffic while

00:56.862 --> 00:59.010
maintaining security cores role is to

00:59.010 --> 01:01.870
provide certain access control point

01:01.870 --> 01:05.340
equipment at the to increase the force

01:05.340 --> 01:07.560
protection posture of the installation

01:07.570 --> 01:09.514
still got red traffic lights . The

01:09.514 --> 01:13.500
system helps protect people by ensuring

01:13.500 --> 01:15.980
that if if there is a threat

01:15.990 --> 01:18.212
approaching the installation , that the

01:18.212 --> 01:20.610
guard has sufficient reaction time to

01:20.610 --> 01:22.910
see that threat approaching and to take

01:22.920 --> 01:24.920
those mitigating measures , whether

01:25.010 --> 01:27.600
it's deploying that barrier system or

01:27.600 --> 01:29.870
taking another appropriate action .

01:29.880 --> 01:32.102
This system will eventually be in place

01:32.140 --> 01:34.650
army wide . I think this program is

01:34.650 --> 01:37.320
important to the Corps of Engineers

01:37.320 --> 01:40.260
because it , it gives us the

01:40.260 --> 01:42.038
opportunity to give back to the

01:42.038 --> 01:44.990
soldiers and their families . Um I feel

01:45.000 --> 01:47.650
like with this program will protect ,

01:47.650 --> 01:49.710
helping to protect the people that

01:49.710 --> 01:52.060
protect us mary cochran smith . Fort
