Desert Sands RV & Veterans Housing
Flagship
Veterans Housing
Desert Sands RV & Veterans Housing is UDD's flagship housing development — demonstrating how housing, infrastructure, energy, and community services can be deployed together at meaningful scale.
Located in Pahrump, Nevada, the project is planned as a large-scale housing and support community focused on veterans and residents needing stable, affordable housing. Power is located at the site with planned on-site generation and storage, and full water rights are secured.

CSU-40 Central Service Unit
Deployable
Infrastructure
The CSU-40 is a deployable infrastructure platform designed to support rapid-response housing, emergency operations, remote site development, military support, and resilient community operations.
Many housing and emergency-response projects fail because utilities, power, water, and sanitation are not available fast enough. CSU-40 solves this by bringing critical infrastructure directly to the site — making the UDD model more resilient, more deployable, and less dependent on existing utility infrastructure.
