Mk 7 / W-93
Abstract
The 3097 RDTEN project has been designated as the Mk7/W93 warhead, a third variant for the Trident. This project was formerly known as the Interoperative Warhead (IW); the name change to Mk7/W93 is reflected herein. This project will design, develop, and test a future Navy warhead to include a new Navy Aeroshell for a Submarine Launched Ballistic Missile (SLBM). Early efforts will primarily consist of developing programmatic planning and structure to support the continuing study and future program along with further exploration and refinement of the concept studies that resulted from the FY 2019 Navy Feasibility Study. Programmatic efforts will consist of program planning and development of cross-agency plans (risk and opportunity, decision documentation and communication). Following the results of the Navy Feasibility Study, refinement of the concept study will be accomplished through system trade studies and drafting initial high level requirements documents in order to support the program entering a Phase 2 (Feasibility Study and Design Options) / 2A (Design Definition and Cost Study) effort in FY 2024.
