Armament/Ordnance Development
Abstract
The Armament/Ordnance Development program provides for the development and integration of advanced precision, navigation, and timing (PNT)capabilities (i.e., GPS, non-GPS, optical, passive, active, etc.); initial and continuing development of weapons, munitions, and munitions equipment for aircraft integration, support, and operation use. This program develops, characterizes, and improves current, future, and legacy munitions, ammunitions, and subsystems. 653133: The Bombs & Fuzes (Armament Subsystems) develops and integrates advanced precision, navigation, and timing (PNT) capabilities (i.e., GPS, non-GPS, optical, passive, active, etc.); and improves conventional weapons/munitions (kinetic and non-kinetic), fuzes, and height-of-burst sensors (HOBS). The project also provides an opportunity to quickly insert emerging technologies into existing and developing aircraft munitions and fuzes. Bombs and fuzes provides research, development and testing of conventional warhead, fuzing, and HOBS modifications to improve lethality against area, mobile, hard and deeply buried, and fixed targets, to include anti-personnel anti-materiel (APAM) targets. This project provides for the development and testing necessary to provide a suitable manufacturing base of conventional warheads, fuzes, HOBS and munitions materiel handling equipment (MMHE). 655361: Stores-Aircraft Interface: This project conducts stores-aircraft interface upgrades and standards development to include the Universal Armament Interface (UAI). UAI is an Air Force initiative to develop standardized software interfaces in aircraft weapons and Mission Planning. UAI standardizes software interfaces to support integration of weapons independent of aircraft Operational Flight Programs (OFP) cycles. UAI is currently being implemented on the F-15E, F-16 Block 40/50 and EPAF (European Participating Air Forces) F-16 aircraft, Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) I and II, Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM), Laser JDAM, Joint Air-to-Surface Stand-off Missile (JASSM) and Precision Guided Munitions Planning Software (PGMPS). Additional aircraft and weapons, including but not limited to, Joint Strike Fighter (JSF/F-35), B-1, B-52, B-21, MQ-9, JASSM-ER, CWDS as well as Army and Navy UAVs and Navy F/A-18s, have program plans to implement UAI. The UAI program office is responsible for development and enhancement of the standard (U.S. and allied) support to coalition/allied/joint interoperability efforts for weapons-platform interface efforts, provision of certification tools and implementation support to aircraft and weapons. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver Armament/Ordnance Development weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605826F, 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605830F, 0605831F, 0605832F, and 0605898F. This program is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD) because it has passed Milestone B approval and is conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full-rate production.
