Lightweight Torpedo Development
Abstract
The Lightweight Torpedo (LWT) program designs, integrates and tests the LWT MK 54. The LWT development program provides performance improvements in shallow water and counter-measure environments. The Engineering Development Model (EDM) contract has delivered 21 MK 54 MOD 1 EDM units to support the in-water test program. The EDM contract for the MK 54 MOD 1 was awarded to Progeny Systems Corporation in September 2008. The High Altitude Anti-Submarine Warfare Weapon Capability (HAAWC) development and Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) contract was awarded to Boeing on April 2013. The Advanced Lightweight Torpedo effort has completed AoA and out briefed the selected material solution. The effort is currently in the program development and requirements phase for FY 2018. Budget supports an incremental developmental acquisition approach combining hardware and Advanced Processor Build (APB) software upgrades to enable rapid fielding of improvements to the fleet. The program will focus on common LWT and Heavyweight Torpedo (HWT) hardware and software architecture enhancements that will provide re-architecture, broadband array improvements, and APB software improvements. Future APB software builds will utilize the common torpedo software to deliver capability and tactic improvements to the MK 54 LWT. The program will also support development of enhanced weapon delivery methods, including the high altitude launch of the MK 54 from the P-8A Maritime Patrol Reconnaissance Aircraft (MPRA) with the HAAWC.
