SMAW Follow-On
Abstract
The solution to the Shoulder-launched Multipurpose Assault Weapon (SMAW) Follow on capability requirement is a Family of Marine-portable Rocket Systems. The Family of Systems include the SMAW MK-153 Mod 0, SMAW MK-153 Mod 2, and the Multi-purpose Anti-Armor Weapon System (MAAWS) M3A1. The MAAWS M3A1 is a multipurpose, man-portable, line-of-sight, reloadable, recoilless, anti-armor and anti-personnel weapon system. This system will enable the Marine Infantry and Combat Engineer Squads to engage in offensive and defensive operations with anti-armor, anti-personnel, anti-material, and assault capabilities. The MAAWS consists of the M3A1 Carl Gustaf Recoilless Rifle, Fire Control System and red dot back up sight. Munitions include two Sub-caliber Adapter Training Devices and a suite of 84mm ammunition with greater capabilities than the SMAW Mod 2 system.
