Indirect Fire Protection Capability Increment 2

Abstract

This program supports the overall integrated Air and Missile Defense (AMD) architecture and provides a robust intercept capability against Cruise Missiles (CM), Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) and Rocket, Artillery, and Mortar (RAM) threats for deployed forces. The Indirect Fire Protection Capability Increment 2 - Intercept (IFPC Inc 2-I) is a ground-based weapon system that is designed to acquire, track, engage, and defeat the UAS, CM, and RAM threats. The system provides 360-degree protection and simultaneously engages threats arriving from different azimuths. A block acquisition approach is used to provide this capability. The IFPC Inc 2-I Block 1 system consists of an existing interceptor and sensor and development of fire control software and a Multi-Mission Launcher (MML) to support the UAS and CM defeat mission. The IFPC Inc 2-I system will be integrated with the Army Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Command and Control (C2) architecture. The IFPC Inc 2-I system is transportable by Army Medium Tactical Vehicles (MTV) common mobile platforms. FY 2019 Base dollars in the amount of $157.710 million are designated for the fabrication and delivery of EMD Assets #7-12, program management/administration, system engineering, hardware and software integration, additional spares and system/subsystem developmental testing.
