(U)Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare Weapon Dev

Abstract

OASuW will be an offensive weapon system that can be air and/or surface launched in the maritime battle space environment. OASuW will be a vital component of the Joint Force Anti-Surface Warfare capability and incorporate new or emergent technologies to support an increased offensive strike capability. OASuW (Increment I) The Department will transition the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) / Office of Naval Research (ONR) Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) demonstration design into a fielded weapon system to provide an early air-launched operational Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare capability using an accelerated acquisition approach. OASuW (Increment II) Funding supports Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) updates to assess fully capable OASuW/Increment II material solution(s) geared to the advanced 2024 threat. Surface and air-launched material solutions will be assessed. Study results to inform development efforts in FY16 and beyond. 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.

Change Summary Explanation
Technical: Funding was provided for an OASuW weapon system that can be air and/or surface launched in the maritime battle space environment. Department requirements have been redefined for the OASuW program across the Future Year Defense Plan (FYDP) in order to address an urgent need for an air launched anti-surface warfare capability. Schedule: Updated to address accelerated acquisition approach to meet the urgent need for an air launched anti-surface warfare capability. Milestone A removed from 1st Qtr 2015 and replaced by Knowledge Points and EOCs added across the FYDP. Technology Development phase added from 3rd Qtr 2013 to 4th Qtr 2016. Engineering & Manufacturing Development (EMD) moved from 3rd Qtr 2015 - 4th QTR 2017 to 1st Qtr 2016 - 4th Qtr 2019. System Readiness Review (SRR) replaced by System Functional Review (SFR). Production Design Review (PDR) moved from 3rd Qtr 2015 to 1st Qtr 2015. Critical Design Review (CDR) moved from 4th Qtr 2016 to 4th Qtr 2015. Technical Readiness Review (TRR) added to 2nd Qtr 2016. Production Readiness Review (PRR) added to 4th Qtr 2017. Operational Testing (OT) moved from 1st Qtr 2019 - 4th Qtr 2019 to 3rd Qtr 2018 - 2nd Qtr 2019. Captive Carriage Test Assets added to 2018.
