Enhanced Munitions Advanced Technology (previously Insensitive Munitions Advanced Technology)
Abstract
Enhanced Munitions Advanced Technology focuses on the following key areas: - High Performance Rocket Propulsion HPP - focuses on the development of technologies to improve the range and speed of HPP systems, rocket motors with Ammonium Perchlorate and with or without a metal fuel, for rockets and missiles launched from air, ground, and sea platforms. - Minimum Signature Rocket Propulsion (MSP) - focuses on the development and demonstration of technologies to improve MS rocket propellant formulations and ingredients, including synthesis, characterization and scale-up; case and packaging design; active and passive venting techniques; rocket motor case design; ignition systems; and thrust mitigation techniques. - Blast and Fragmentation Warheads (BFW) - focuses on the development and demonstration of technologies that when applied enhance the lethality of Blast/Fragmentation munitions. - Anti-Armor Warheads (AAW) - focuses on the development of explosive ingredients, explosives, and warhead technologies for improving performance of AAW munitions. - Gun Propulsion (GP) - focuses on the development and demonstration of technologies in the area of GP systems. The development and demonstration of gun propulsion technologies, when applied to munition systems, will improve the range and/or time to target of all gun launched munitions to include small/medium caliber, tank/mortar and large caliber propulsion systems.
