- FY22 - The requested $3.943M will establish AF air-to-surface kinetic / conventional R&D support for IMEA.

This transition will focus on evolving weapon phenomenology associated with advanced penetrator and hypersonic weapons against Hard Deeply Buried Targets (HDBTs). The AF will assume operational support and development of the IMEA software from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency starting FY22. DTRA will continue to support Air Force with basic R&D research of new capabilities associated with HDBT, Nuclear, and WMD as defined by MOA between DTRA and the AF. The AF is the operational fielding and transition partner for DTRA and AFRL to integrate and field all weapon and target R&D technology to AF and other Joint Environments.
