(U)Precision Strike Weapons Development Program

Abstract

The Precision Strike Weapons Development program provides for initial and continuing development of strike weapons consisting of armament, munitions, and weapon subsystems to allow for the horizontal integration among current and future weapon system capabilities to include Anti-Surface Warfare and the weaponization of Unmanned Aerial Systems. This program provides for the development of weapon and weapon system technologies to address urgent requirements for enhanced and alternative weapon system capability requirements that include selectable output weapons, low collateral damage weapons, precision lethality weapons, area weapons, alternative warhead technology, Insenstive Munitions (IM), scaled munitions, DoD fuzing systems, sensors, extended range weapons and precision guided training round technology. This program is funded under ADVANCED COMPONENT DEVELOPMENT AND PROTOTYPES because it includes all efforts necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative models or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.
