Missile and Rocket Advanced Technology

Abstract

This PE matures, fabricates, and demonstrates advanced rocket, missile, interceptor, and guided munition technologies to enhance weapon system lethality, survivability, agility, deployability, and affordability. Project 206 develops high fidelity simulations for advanced tactical missiles and interceptors. Project 263 demonstrates missile and interceptor systems with capabilities to provide protection against rockets, artillery, and mortars; provide precision weapons for small units in close combat; provide precision long-range fires; and provide minimum smoke propulsion for aviation missiles. Project 704 demonstrates the capability to detect and track rocket, artillery, mortar, and unmanned air vehicles threats. Project NA6 is a congressional increase Project. Work in this PE is complimentary to PE 0602303A (Missile Technology) and is fully coordinated with PE 0602618A (Ballistics Technology), PE 0602624A (Weapons and Munitions Technology), PE 0603003A (Aviation Advanced Technology), PE 0603004A (Weapons and Munitions Advanced Technology), PE 0603005A (Combat Vehicle and Automotive Advanced Technology), PE 0603125A (Combating Terrorism Technology Development), PE 0603270A (Electronic Warfare Technology), PE 0603734A (Military Engineering Advanced Technology), and PE 0708045A (End Item Industrial Preparedness Activities). In FY20 this PE is being eliminated, with continuity of effort realigned to other PEs as part of a strategic financial restructuring of the Science and Technology (S&T) portfolio. All FY20 adjustments align program requirements with Army Modernization priorities in support of the National Defense Strategy. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. The work in this PE is performed by the United States Army Futures Command.
