Joint Munitions Technology
Abstract
This program supports the Department's initiatives to build sustainable and long-term technology advantages to solve operational and mission-focused challenges. The Joint Enhanced Munitions Technology Program (JEMTP), within the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E)) was established to develop and demonstrate joint munitions enhancing technologies (energetics, warheads, propulsion systems, advanced lethality mechanisms, fuzes and fuze components, and target detection to provide future kinetic fires capabilities to ensure advantage for U.S. warfighters. The program’s plans and investments are informed by threat-opportunity based analyses from Joint Force campaign scenarios. The JEMTP activities within Program Element 0602000D8Z are executed under two Project Codes: 076 - Enhanced Munitions and 355 – Energetics Technologies. Project Code 076 - The Enhanced Munitions Project continues focus on technology investments on novel fuzing, power sources, target detection sensing technologies, and counter-countermeasure technologies that are vital to combine with Energetics Technologies Project investments to enhance future munitions range/speed, lethality and survivability. Project Code 355 - In FY 2025, the program will execute the Energetics Technology project to focus on investigation and research of energetic materials (ingredients and formulations) with the goals of enhancing munitions capability and addressing supply chain resilience. The Energetics Technology Project will collaborate with DoD and Services to develop and execute strategies and roadmaps for advanced energetics to conduct energetics material synthesis and formulation development; to accelerate the application and transition of advanced energetics materials into DoD munitions and the energetics manufacturing base; and to apply modern, agile energetics processing and manufacturing technologies.
