Join us in producing a catalyst to new tools, tactics and strength for our Soldiers and Marines...

…a base for innovation and way to save years in delivering it…

… a power and diplomacy solution for Iraq and future threats.

-- Jake is the 21st century view of Soldiers and Marines on the ground. It combines new technologies in new ways to provide the missing link between our footsoldier and their armored trucks. It is a kinder face, yet a fearsome fighter.

-- Jake makes the soldier readily accessible to civilian interaction while protecting him from sniper fire and IED blasts and giving him firepower of a 50 cal or 4,000 round mini-gun in the tightest urban situation.

-- Jake is a 2800 pound, radically agile soldier support system providing ballistic protection for the soldier, doing this on 2-WD, 4-WD, 6-WD, and tracks to meet a multitude of mission environments.

-- Jake carries 2000 lbs. of lethal and non-lethal weapons and tools, IED jammer, sniper sensor, 3D mapping, smaller robots, communications, remote buddy interface, sensors, ammo, water, food, batteries, generator, medivac, and mine detection gear, able to quickly drop off its squad support pack at mission site.

-- Jake can spin on a dime and perform robotically, flushing out a sniper, covering a soldier under fire, or getting our wounded out fast. Its tactics multiply with our troops' ingenuity.

-- Jake excites Special Forces, Marines and Soldiers who have seen it, with its teaming on patrol and on target, as deterrence to the ‘bad guys’ and security to friendly populations.

-- Jake gives our guys constant teaming with ”buddies” coordinating from remote locations and can be surgically inserted to rapidly deal with trouble spots anywhere in the world.

-- Jake is agile protection of port, critical facilities and airports within homeland security. It “walks softly and carries a big stick”

--Jake is "worth a billion dollars in recruiting power alone" - US Army Ranger Recruiter

In providing powerful support that fits how our soldiers think and move today, Jake™ opens a broad spectrum of innovation for tomorrow!

Jake™ is a new concept: half robot, half vehicle, all soldier. It enables a new philosophy. Much of its power is counter-intuitive as it allows a softer footprint amongst civilians and new ways of supporting, amplifying and protecting our troops on patrol.

In all of this, the Jake is quite simply a tool to our soldiers’ innovation. This opens growth in capabilities in networked swarming of soldier-interactive robotics and surgical application of firepower, while utilizing its more diplomatic face in “winning hearts and minds”.

Our young Soldiers and Marines are techno-savvy and creative. With an open path to develop new equipment, unbiased by process, committee dynamics, and political and corporate interests, they will use this powerful catalyst in developing ways to accomplish the tough jobs we are presently asking of them.

But this cannot be done alone, or left to process. Only by pulling together as Americans, with concern for our soldiers on foot, can we overcome the accumulative resistance to change of large organizations inherently, and historically, slow to embrace radical shifts in doctrine (we must remember that these organizations are designed, and must remain, disciplined to logistically support a war on many fronts).

Together, and utilizing a focused program, we can save years in getting transformational power to our Soldiers and Marines!

A solid team from across America is in place, with military leaders and defense companies desiring the Jake’s development linking and delivering a broad cross-section of amazing, and now mature, technologies.

General A.M. Gray, former Commandant of the US Marine Corps, said of the Jake: “This is innovative, but when these get in the hands of our young Corporals and Sergeants, they will think of a 100 things you have not thought of”.

This is exactly the reason for Operation American Agility, to open up the power of America. It is to give these young soldiers a transforming piece of equipment and the freedom for innovation with proven leaders from wide ranging backgrounds, something that presently there is no other structure to do.

There is no other way to achieve this solution than by Americans joining together!

Operation American Agility focuses on how America gets things done when they need to be done fast, with proven team dynamics for the greatest speed and innovation. Listen to a cross section of Americans on this site as they speak on what this means to our Soldiers and Marines and how, together, we can use the Jake as the catalyst for much larger action, and thus do the impossible.
