This web page contains a strong disclaimer, a brief discussion bringing together today's technology to greatly extend the "military speed bump" tactical solution. The web page ventures deeper by providing a quick historical review of "speed bumps", working assumptions, a set of a expected criteria, an implementation proposal, and outlines possible deployment doctrine.
1> The tactical solution presented here proposes a weapons platform called "Hog Jackson Weapons Platform" or HJWP (Hotel Juliett Whisky Pappa).
The exact details of the weapons platform presented are left vague to preserve proprietary information of the
Abiriba_RG. The HJWP is intended as a crew served ground mobile vehicle capable of engaging in tactical operations.
2> No warranty is made regarding the serviceability or fitness for use of the HJ weapons platform. A user is granted

Summary:
Immediately below is a table showing the Top Three Candidates to fill vehicle solution role as Hog Jackson Weapons Platform.
Beneath that table is a collection of Analysis Details of Project presented in another table. The second table lists items or steps
in the decision-making process for the Hog Jackson Weapons Platform project. Included in that table are links to the needs statement,
a list of possible solutions, a a set of criteria that all solutions must exhibit, a list of criteria used to establish the relative merit used to
define the best solution, and an analysis summary of derived during the evaluation of the best solution.
Finally that table recognizes the Hog Jackson Weapons
Platform derived from the project analysis, establishes the strong points of the derived solution, sets a focus on the weak spots of
the proposed solution, and the funding/implementation/deployment status of the project.
