Naval Surface Fire Support

Abstract

The Naval Surface Fire Support (NSFS) program included development of a 5"/62 gun system (a modification to the existing 5"/54 gun) and a 5" Extended Range Guided Munition (ERGM) with a coupled Global Positioning System (GPS) and an Inertial Navigation System (INS). An Acquisition Decision Memorandum (ADM) signed by USD (AT&L) on July 25, 2008 cancelled the ERGM program and authorized conducting Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) for Joint Fires. The AoA study was completed in September 2009.
