Solid State Laser Technology Maturation (SSL-TM)
Abstract
The Solid State Laser Technology Maturation (SSL-TM) Program is developing an integrated Laser Weapons System Demonstrator (LWSD) that will be installed on USS Portland (LPD-27) during FY 2019 with investments funded in the BA3 Innovative Naval Prototypes Program Element 0603801N. The investment programmed in Program Element 0603382N, Advanced Combat Systems Technology, funds costs for extended at-sea experimentation, operations, and support of the installed system on LPD-27 in the Pacific operating areas. SSL-TM will provide a new capability to the Fleet to address known capability gaps against asymmetric threats (UAS, small boats, and ISR sensors) and will inform future acquisition strategies, system designs, integration architectures, and fielding plans for laser weapon systems.
