Next Generation Land Attack Weapon (NGLAW)

Abstract

Funding is provided for the Next Generation Land Attack Weapon (NGLAW) that includes a survivable, long range, multi-mission, multi-platform (surface and subsurface) conventional strike capability in the FY28-FY30 timeframe. NGLAW will address future threats while bringing ship/submarine Next Generation Strike Capability (NGSC) to Department of the Navy (DoN) standoff conventional strike (land and maritime attack). NGLAW will be capable of attacking land and maritime, stationary and mobile targets while supporting two of the Navy's primary mission areas: 'Power Projection' (land attack from the sea/undersea) and 'Sea Control' against enemy surface action groups/combatants. To the maximum extent possible, the Navy will utilize common components and component technologies (e.g. navigation; communications; seeker; guidance and control) to reduce cost, shorten development timelines, and promote interoperability.
