MARINE CORPS GROUND COMBAT/SUPPORTING ARMS SYST
Abstract
Organic Precision Fires (OPF) is a Service Force Design priority and will provide multiple echelons of the Fleet Marine Force with an organic, loitering, beyond-line-of-sight precision strike capability. OPF has demonstrated through extensive war-gaming and simulation, combined with experience gained in real world operations, that it will significantly improve the organic lethality of infantry and reconnaissance formations. Providing a Hunter (Group 2 UAS) - Killer (loitering munition) combination, OPF will deliver precision effects as well as surveillance before, during, and after striking targets, at ranges beyond 40 kilometers, while reducing the potential for collateral damage. As such, the OPF capability is a critical element of force modernization to close the gap between long range/precision fires and close-combat weapons. OPF will develop a vehicle mounted, universal, multi-canister launch platform integrated onto multiple vehicles such as the Light Armored Vehicle (LAV) or Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV); a Stalker Group 2 UAS; and a Government Command and Control (C2) system. The OPF munitions will use a variety of fuse and munition combinations capable of providing diverse operational effects. OPF will also develop the offensive capability for the Long Range Unmanned Surface Vessel (LRUSV) as well as a single launch, dismounted capability, fired from the ground and transported via Ultra-Light Tactical Vehicle (ULTV) or backpack.
