Munition Efficiency and Scalability

Abstract

This effort investigates, designs, models and evaluates technologies to produce blast-fragment warheads with tailored fragment geometries to optimize target defeat; Identifies and develops warhead impact patterns to optimize target defeat with reduced collateral damage; Designs, codes and evaluates technologies for the cost effective, preprogrammed delivery of multiple scalable warheads capable of simultaneously engaging multiple targets. This effort leverages guidance technologies from PE 0602147A (Long Range Precision Fires) / Project AH4 (Precision and Coop Weapons in a Denied Env Tech), and metal additive manufacturing from PE 0602144A (Ground Technology) / Project BL1 (Materials and Manufacturing Research Technology).
