Long Range Precision Fires Technology
Abstract
This Program Element (PE) is directly aligned to the Army Long Range Precision Fires (LRPF) Modernization Priority. Work in this PE investigates and develops LRPF technologies to destroy, neutralize, or suppress the enemy by cannon artillery and missile fire and enable integration of fire support assets into combined arms operations. Major Focus Areas for LRPF Science and Technology include: Missiles, Cannon Artillery, and Supporting LRPF Technologies covering Strategic, Operational and Tactical Fires Lines of Effort. LRPF Missiles Applied Research investigates and develops a broad range of Missile technologies to enhance Army integrated LRPF capabilities at extended range. Cannon Artillery Applied Research investigates and develops critical technologies to increase range, precision, and both point and area effects for cannon artillery. Supporting LRPF Technologies Applied Research investigates and develops a broad range of component technologies to address weapon cost drivers and enhance performance of future LRPF munitions and systems. Research in this PE complements PE 0603464A (Long Range Precision Fires Advanced Technology). The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy.
