Joint Warhead Fuze Sustainment Program
Abstract
The Joint Warhead Fuze Sustainment Program is a development and studies program which integrates modern technologies into the Arming, Fuzing, and Firing (AF&F) development and modernization to improve reliability, safety and security, and develop common fuze components adaptable to current and future warheads. The Joint Warhead Fuze Sustainment Program will focus on technologies that have multi-service (Navy and Air Force) and Multi-Nation (US and UK) applicability. Examples of the technologies to be investigated are advance safety systems architectures, improved radar performance, multi-chip radar integration, radiation hardened electronics, radiation hardened non-volatile memory, advance power systems, identification of component qualification techniques, and preliminary testing of alternative components (primarily circuit elements.) A study will be conducted to determine what surety, safety, and ambiguity issues may exist if SSBNs were outloaded with both conventional and nuclear payloads.
