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 High Altitude Anti-Submarine Warfare Weapon Capability (HAAWC) development and Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) contract was awarded to Boeing on April 2013. The MK54 MOD 2 torpedo effort has completed an Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) and also completed and approved a Capability Development Document (CDD). The effort is currently in the system requirements and development phase for FY 2019/FY 2020 and in the process of awarding four Other Transaction Authority (OTA) agreements to industry partners for the design of the guidance and control, warhead, and stored chemical energy propulsion system afterbody sections, as well as the all up round. 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, and improvements to the array, warhead, propulsion, and APB software. Future APB software builds will utilize the common torpedo software to deliver capability and tactics 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.

- Change Summary Explanation
- FY21 Funding increases by $1.0 M for development of a common HAAWC that can also be used on MK54 MOD 2. A decrease of $.409 resulted from other rate and miscellaneous adjustments. Proj: 1412 HAAWC - Funding for development of common HAAWC for MK54 MOD 2. Proj: 2234 Lightweight Hybrid Torpedo - Decrease of $1.115M from FY20 to FY21 based on a reduction in the number of in-water developmental test runs. Proj: 3418 Advanced Anti-Submarine Lightweight Torpedo - Increase of $43.524M for Other Transactional Authority (OTA) agreements for the development of an improved propulsion system, new warhead development, new Guidance & Control(G&C) Section, All up Round (AUR) integration, P-8A and Helo platform integration, New Fleet Exercise Section development, and New Test Set development in support of Advanced Lightweight Torpedo (MK54 MOD 2) development. Funding also supports fabrication and delivery of Proof-of-Design (POD) hardware.
