Harm Improvement

Abstract

Research, Development, Test and Evaluation funding for the Joint Service Anti-Radiation Missile (ARM) program, which will include near and far term performance improvements, cost reduction, and studies that establish future development requirements. Specific initial efforts include lower cost seeker component development and seeker aided fuzing to enhance warhead performance in low angle impacts and against certain ship targets. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: These projects are funded under Operational Systems Development because they include development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full-rate production and anticipate funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
