Marine Corps Ammo

Abstract

Ammunition Life Cycle Management (ALCM) supports PM Ammunition's responsibility for total life cycle management for ground conventional munitions. Ammunition logistics R&D projects are designed to extend the shelf life of our current inventory, provide enhanced packaging to "lighten the load" of our munitions, and modify ammunition-related systems to increase reliability and performance while enhancing accountability and auditability. Conventional Ground Ammunition (CGA) is a project that identifies and develops Insensitive Munitions (IM) technologies to address IM shortfalls in new Marine Corps development and/or improvements to legacy CGA to meet OSD-mandated IM compliance requirements. These IM technology investments directly support the development of the bi-annual Marine Corps Insensitive Munitions Strategic Plan (IMSP), which addresses any identified IM technology needs of the Marine Corps. The decrease from FY 2024 to FY 2025 is primarily attributed to the completion of J143 Rocket Motor development efforts.
