Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS)
Abstract
The Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS) Weapon System will deliver a hypersonic conventional offensive strike capability through a depressed boost-glide trajectory to prosecute deep-inland, time-critical, soft and medium-hardened targets in contested environments. The CPS Weapon System will enhance U.S. conventional power projection through longer range, shorter time of flight, and higher survivability against enemy defenses compared to current capabilities. The CPS weapon system or major elements of the weapon system will be deployed onboard multiple launch platforms. The CPS program is a partnered effort between services. Specifically, the Navy and Army are collaborating to design and deliver a common All Up Round (AUR) in accordance with an inter-service Memorandum of Agreement. To meet Navy requirements and Army priorities, the Navy is designing and developing the Common Hypersonic Glide Body (C-HGB) and 34.5" Booster, and integrating the C-HGB with the Navy-produced 34.5" Booster to create a common AUR. The Army is responsible for production of the Navy-designed C-HGB. To enable weapon system integration to meet Navy mission requirements, near-term design, development, and experimentation are required across the weapon system's components. Design and development efforts will focus on boosters; thermal protection systems; navigation, guidance and control systems; capability enhancements; payload modules; weapon control systems and interfaces to existing fire control systems; support equipment; and launcher systems. Component and subsystem technology maturity will be demonstrated, and risk reduction accomplished, through Modeling and Simulation (M&S) assessments, Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) / Software-in-the-Loop (SWIL) testing, ground-based testing, in-air and underwater launch testing, and flight tests. Furthermore, with each platform deployment, risk continues to be reduced for weapon subsystems and components until prototyping efforts culminate in an initial operational Blk V VIRGINIA Class submarine weapon system capability. The program will capitalize on commonality between platform implementations. CPS supports the National Defense Strategy by supporting modernization initiatives for hypersonic technologies and enabling a more lethal force. The CPS program plan: (1) Provides rapid delivery of capability through multiple acquisition increments and configurations; and (2) Provides flexibility to allow for additional capability phases as the weapon system and warfighter requirements evolve. In order to meet current Top Level Requirements (TLR) and future warfighter needs, the program has developed a Technology Insertion (TI) strategy with pre-planned insertion points to enable the program to regularly insert baseline upgrades and mature advanced technologies to support capability improvements into the Navy and Army systems. To support the TI Strategy, the program has developed a Science and Technology / Advanced Capability (STAC) process to mature advanced technology and fill Navy and Army warfighting capability gaps to ensure continued battlefield dominance. The FY 2025 budget exhibit reflects no change to cost categories shown in FY 2024. Budget exhibit data is based on annual task planning efforts to evaluate current and future year budget requirements. This cost data is continuously updated based on actual execution data and prime contractor negotiations.
