AARGM ER
Abstract
The Air-to-Ground (AGM)-88 Extended Range (ER) Upgrade was a new start in FY 2016. The purpose of this effort is to develop hardware and software modifications to improve the Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile (AARGM)'s operational capabilities, including extended range, survivability and effectiveness against complex, new, and emerging threats. This budget line item funds a new rocket motor design, system development and integration, test asset procurement, testing, and associated software updates for the AARGM-ER to ensure these capabilities perform in accordance with established requirements. FY 2020 activities include continuation of the Engineering & Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase, initiation of Developmental Test & Evaluation, and the commencement of test articles delivery. AARGM-ER retains the same guidance, sensor, and warhead capabilities of the AARGM. The AARGM-ER program is part of the Navy's Integrated Fire Control (IFC) approach to address advanced threat capabilities in the Anti-Access/Area-Denial (A2/AD) environment. IFC solutions enable individual system capabilities to be leveraged across an effects chain, placing the full spectrum of tactical capability in the hands of the warfighter. IFC solutions that push engagement distances beyond the launch platform's radar horizon and allows the U.S. Navy to operate in, and control, contested battle space in littoral waters and A2/AD environments are increasingly critical as more scenarios require compressed and coordinated fire control timelines. AARGM-ER is a capability-based acquisition program and has been structured to meet the CNO's urgency mandate to deliver warfighting capability as soon as possible.
