What stage includes final installation of BEAR assets and enhancements for survivability?

The Follow-On Stage is characterized by the final installation of BEAR (Base Expeditionary Airfield Resources) assets and the implementation of enhancements for survivability. This stage typically comes after the Initial Stage, where concepts and foundational systems are established, and after the Intermediate Stage, which focuses on development and pre-deployment preparations. In the Follow-On Stage, priority is given to completing projects and installations that improve the capabilities of the assets, ensuring they are fully operational and resilient in the face of potential challenges. This focus on survivability is critical, as it aims to enhance the longevity and effectiveness of the deployed systems in real-world scenarios. In contrast, the other stages do not encompass the conclusive aspects of asset installation and survivability enhancements.
