Decisive Lethality
Abstract
This effort develops energy-efficient lethal mechanism technologies for the next-generation of large-caliber ammunition launched from direct fire weapon systems to maximize the lethality against an array of targets and provide tactical advantage at extended ranges against current and future threats. This includes research and development to produce a compact, high energy density propelling charge, engineered aerodynamics for improved accuracy, a novel kinetic penetrator with next generation lethal mechanism, and the ability to defeat advanced and smart armors.
