Precision Strike Weapons Development Program
Abstract
Initial and continuing development of strike weapons consisting of armament, munitions, and weapon subsystems to allow for horizontal integration among current and future weapon system capabilities to provide enhanced anti-surface and land strike capabilities in a demanding Anti-Access Area-Dental environment. This program provides for the development of weapon and weapon system technologies to address future 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, Insensitive Munitions (IM), scaled munitions, Department of Defense (DoD) fuzing systems, sensors, extended range weapons, precision guided training rounds, aerial refueling, fuel containment, and technologies associated with cartridge actuated devices/propellant actuated devices. PROJ 3334: The Precision Strike Weapons Development Program Element supports Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS) warfighting capability that enables precise and timely strike capabilities in contested environments across multiple platforms. In coordination with the Army, the Navy CPS Program will design a missile comprised of a common hypersonic glide body (C-HGB) and a 34.5" two-stage booster. Development efforts under this program element leads to a weapon system capability that:(1) is non-ballistic over the majority of the flight path; (2) controls stage drop; (3) provides positive control and precision accuracy from launch to impact; (4) provides adequate cross-range/maneuverability to avoid over-flight issues; (5) provides prompt lethal effects on targets; and (6) is man-safe and deployable for surface and submerged platforms. PROJ 3378: The Precision Strike Weapons Development Program Element (PE) supports the Next Generation Strike Weapon (NGSW) Family of Systems (FoS) based on the NGLAW Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) completed with results briefed out to OSD. NGSW FoS more accurately reflects the surface/submarine capabilities for land-attack and maritime strike that the AoA results identified for the most capable and economic solutions fielding incrementally between 2020 and 2032. NGSW FoS Increments I and II will leverage mature as well as emerging technologies vice developing a single weapon. NGSW funding will maintain the security environment (enclave), facility, and study team to enable continuing analysis efforts across the FoS. The NGSW enclave ensures the Navy is able to maintain the most up to date modeled threats and validate the effectiveness of current US weapons, offensive and defensive, as well as future systems and concepts developed by industry and other DoD organizations. Maintaining this capability allows expedited analysis of systems and fully informed investment decisions. PROJ 3407: The Precision Strike Weapons Development Program Element (PE) supports the air-launched electronic warfare (EW) systems capability; through the integration of a Navy variant of the Miniature Air Launched Decoy (MALD). EW is an integral war-fighting effect supporting combatant commander integrated priorities, as well as Joint or Coalition operations. EW systems influence, deceive, disrupt, degrade, deny and destroy threats throughout the electromagnetic spectrum to airborne and air-launched systems and their operations. EW includes air-launched electronic attack (EA) as well as elements of electronic support (ES) and electronic protection (EP). EA provides self-protection capabilities to other weapon systems through active and passive measures that deceive threats to airborne and air-launched systems and their operations by using kinetic and non-kinetic means to defeat threats that rely on the electromagnetic spectrum (Radio Frequency (RF), Electro-Optical (EO), Infrared (IR). The ES capabilities support the collection, analysis, and dissemination of information related to the detection, geo-location, characterization, and identification of threats to airborne and air-launched systems and their operations. An air-launched EW system with stand-in capability increases the range and duration of EW systems while providing flexibility to commanders for employment. MALD is integral to realizing the National Defense Strategy of combat-credible military forces to deter war, protect the security of our nation and to enable the Joint Force to win should deterrence fail. The development and acquisition of MALD has been structured to be fielded at a pace relevant to maintain overmatch against long-term strategic competition. Specifically MALD directly contributes to building a more lethal force and is a critical enabler for joint lethality in contested environments; deterring adversaries from aggression and evolves innovative operational concepts. PROJ 3409: The Precision Strike Weapons Development Program Element (PE) supports the Advanced Aerial Refueling Store (AARS) which incorporates new technologies to be the next generation of Aerial Refueling. This variant will increase safety of flight, facilitate unmanned tanker to refuel receiver aircraft, incorporate better health and diagnostics information and improved fail-safe technology. The AARS will increase reliability and decrease serial refueling mishaps. PROJ 3411: The Precision Strike Weapons Development Program Element (PE) supports the Cartridge Actuated Device / Propellant Actuated Device (CAD/PAD) Digital Twin Modeling to develop and validate models and algorithms for the Department of the Navy (DoN). The development effort is specific to Navy Air Crew Common Ejection Seats (NACES). These models will also be used to support initial service life decisions, service life extension decisions, and address obsolescence. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: 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.

- FY 2020: Funding reduced (-$80.9M) based on Congressional adjustment to Conventional Prompt Strike for 'unexecutable growth.' FY 2021: Funding reduced (-$67.5M) due to program adjustments to reflect two new start efforts (+$6.0M for Proj 3409 and +$0.8M for Proj 3411); the re-phasing of CPS test schedule (Proj 3334, -$57.6M); redirection of funds from NGLAW to new production of Tomahawk Land Attack Missile (Proj 3378,-$7.0M); reduction of funds to Air Launched Decoy Development based on prior year execution balance (Proj 3407, -$14.2M); and Rate Adjustments for Navy Working Capital Fund (+$4.4M).
