Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare (OASuW) Weapon
Abstract
Offensive Anti-Surface Warfare (OASuW) will be an offensive weapon system that can be air, surface, and subsurface launched in the maritime battle space environment. OASuW will be a vital component of the Joint Force Anti-Surface Warfare capability and incorporate new and emergent technologies to support an increased offensive strike capability. Due to emerging threats, the fleet issued an Urgent Operational Needs Statement (UONS) that identified a capability gap for a long-range anti-ship missile to be filled by 2018. Directly supporting this UONS and significantly reducing Joint Force warfighting risks, the U.S. Navy initiated OASuW Increment 1, which leverages the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency(DARPA)/Office of Naval Research Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) demonstration program to deliver an Early Operational Capability (EOC) in the required timeframe. LRASM fills the most urgent air-launched capability gap to compliment, existing ASuW weapon systems and positions the Department of Defense to address evolving surface warfare threats. Decrease in FY 2016 quantities from 24 test articles to 12 production representative units for free flight test events which will be consumed during maritime environmental testing. The remaining 12 are not considered fully configured end items for the purpose of PAUC calculation. In FY 2017, system qualification testing will complete, environmental and ship suitability testing will be conducted, flight test articles will deliver, and flight testing will commence, including the first free-flight weapon firing. Platform integration work continues.
