MEDUSA JCTD
Abstract
The MEDUSA Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) demonstrated the Low Cost Guided Imaging Rockets (LOGIR) technology developed at the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division, China Lake on the MH-60S. LOGIR was to initially provide "fire and forget" capability to 2.75-inch rockets in support of Sea Shield Pillar. LOGIR provides increased platform lethality against Fast Attack Craft (FAC)/Fast Inshore Attack Craft (FIAC) threat, a low-cost imaging infraRed precision guidance section for the existing 2.75-inch unguided rockets and maximum precision kills per sortie with minimum collateral damage, increased efficiency and increased standoff distance. Initial program documentation (i.e. performance specifications, Capabilities Development Document) was developed within the scope of the JCTD.
