CONVENTIONAL PROMPT STRIKE (CPS)

Abstract

Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS) warfighting capability will enable precise and timely strike in contested environments across multiple platforms. In coordination with the Army, the Navy CPS Program is designing a common All Up Round (AUR) comprised of a Common Hypersonic Glide Body (C-HGB) and a 34.5" two-stage booster. The Navy is responsible for the design of the C-HGB, while the Army leads that production. The Navy will design, develop, and produce the missile booster, as well as integrate the missile booster with the C-HGB. Each service will use the common hypersonic missile while developing individual weapon control systems and launchers tailored for launch from sea or land. Development efforts under this program element lead 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.

Change Summary Explanation
In FY 2021, this funding was transferred from Program Element 0604659N Precisions Strike Weapons Development Program. The CPS budget previously showed all Science and Technology / Advanced Capabilities (STAC) efforts under the Weapon System Integration budget category. The program has broken these costs into their own budget category in order to provide greater transparency. --- FY 2023 funding increase reflects the fact that the FY 2022 President’s Budget request did not include out-year funding.
