CONVENTIONAL PROMPT STRIKE (CPS)

Abstract

Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS) 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 C-HGB design, while the Army leads C-HGB production. The Navy will design, develop, and produce the missile booster, and will integrate the missile booster with the C-HGB. Each service will use the resulting 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: Past Budget Structure Changes: - Prior to FY 2022, CPS budgets showed all Science and Technology / Advanced Capabilities (STAC) efforts under the Weapon System Integration budget category. The CPS program broke out these costs into their own budget category in order to provide greater transparency. Program Changes: FY 2024 Program Adjustments: - Adjustment of $410.947M realigned funding to appropriate appropriations. $49.500M of funding realigned to RDTEN PE 0204202N for DDG Integration on ZUMWALT Class, $40.000M of funding realigned to SCN LI 2013 for SSN integration in VIRGINIA Class submarines, $33.700M realigned to OPN LI 0947 for DDG 1000 Class Support Equipment, $6.650M of funding realigned to MCN LI 64482044 for Planning and Design for Conventional Long Weapon Storage; CPS Maintenance, Operations, and Storage; and Test facilities (Yorktown and Pearl Harbor), and $281.097M of funding realigned to WPN LI 1160 for procurement of All Up Rounds. Note for Quantity of RDT&E Articles: - The profile for Quantity of RDT&E Articles reflects the year procurements are initiated for each unit. Efforts for each RDT&E asset are incrementally funded across multiple fiscal years. The total quantity reflects AUR+C, flight test assets, high fidelity test assets, and high fidelity simulators.
