Enhanced Fuse for 70mm Warhead (United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM))
Abstract
Validates a fuse that allows the pilot to change settings while in-flight to engage a wide range of targets. Currently, Special Operations Aviation Forces are missing targets of opportunity due to their inability to reset rocket fuses once airborne. The primary outputs and efficiencies to be demonstrated from the project are mission flexibility that reduces dependence on Joint Direct Attack Munitions and Hellfire Rocket and avoids Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) procurement, operations, and support costs worth $68.000 million.
