Abrams Lethality Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) 1B
Abstract
The Abrams Lethality ECP 1B program consists of lethality improvements. The primary focus is the integration of 3GEN Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) and the integration of Ammunition Data Link (ADL) for the Advanced Multi-purpose (AMP) round. Additional improvements to the target acquisition sensors consist of inclusion of color cameras, laser capabilities, and image processing improvements. Other potential improvements consist of an improved environmental control system, laser warning receiver, vehicle smoke generation, and weight reduction efforts. Trade studies, analysis and technology maturation will be performed to evaluate prospective improvements, along with obsolescence mitigation, and incorporation of inbound technologies currently under development.
