MICE Step V will provide the flexibility for a thorough exploration and characterization of the performance of ionization cooling. Step V will include four RF cavities to provide 8 MV/m gradient in a strong magnetic field. This entails an RF drive system to deliver 2 MW, 1 ms pulses of 201 MHz frequency at 1 Hz repetition rate, the distribution network to deliver 1 MW to each cavity with correct RF phasing, diagnostics to determine the gradient and the muon transit phase, and development of the large diameter magnets required in order to keep the muons focused through the linacs. Progress towards the completion of Step V is described.
