Energetics Technology

Abstract

U.S. weapons systems still largely rely on decades-old explosive and propellant technologies that limit Joint Force options to deter, and if necessary, defeat adversaries in conflict. The Energetics Technology project is established to expedite investigation, research, and transition of novel energetics materials, chemicals, and processes that will enable improvements in existing and future munitions performance. The investments and efforts will enable modern manufacturing processing and help to bolster U.S. energetics supply chain resiliency. The Joint Enhanced Munitions Technology Program (JEMTP), Services, and Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (OUSD) munitions stakeholder community will collaborate to generate technology roadmaps for advanced energetic research, development, including CL-20 compounds.
