Advanced Lethality Demonstration

Abstract

This effort matures and demonstrates novel penetrator designs as well as alternative lethal mechanisms to maintain or exceed tank main gun performance against multiple target types into the future. A goal of this effort is to mature and demonstrate new tank main gun rounds, made with conventional materials, of equal or better performance to our currently fielded depleted uranium based rounds. Efforts described here are coordinated and complementary to the FY10 Advanced Lethality Demonstration in PE0603004A/Project L94.
