Tactical Tomahawk All-Up-Round (AUR) and Tactical Tomahawk Weapons Control System (TTWCS)
Abstract
Continue Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2AD) navigation and communication integration into Block IV weapons system. Continue fleet experimentation and requirements coordination as well as Concept of Operations (CONOPS)/ Concept of Employment development. Continuation of the design and integration of the seeker suite into the Tactical Tomahawk (TACTOM) to be incorporated during recertification. Continuation of the cooperatively funded United States Navy/United Kingdom Joint Multi-Effects Warhead System (JMEWS) / Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) and the commencement of fuze technology maturation and risk-reduction. Include significant research and analysis of the worldwide target set capability gaps to include Hard and Deeply Buried Targets and conventional Global Strike targets. In addition, NAWCAD also provides engine power data/analysis in order to determine reserve power available to power potential upgrades to the Tomahawk AUR, such as JMEWS. Continue development of activities associated with Military Global Positioning System User Equipment (MGUE) Insertion. In addition, the Maritime Strike Tomahawk modernization effort provides the capability to hit moving maritime targets through mid-course guidance via a third party or seeker mode, to a terminal seeker area of uncertainty in an A2AD environment.
