Mobile Land Based Anti-Ship Fires (Army)
Abstract
Integrate existing Norwegian Naval Strike Missile (NSM) and four-pod launcher onto a standard U.S. Army Palletized Load System flat rack and demonstrate NSM launch and engagement of an over-the-horizon maritime target. This Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT) mounted system enables Army and Marine Corps forces to support joint force freedom of movement and action through the projection of power from land into the maritime domain. Currently, there is no mobile, land-based, over-the-horizon, anti-ship warfare capability. The goal of this project is to evaluate an asset that could fill this critical capability gap. In 4Q FY 2017, a contract was awarded to procure the launcher and missile system from the vendor.
