Long Range Engagement Weapon (LREW)
Abstract
This project completed the engineering and design work required to rigorously demonstrate the feasibility of a multi-role, long-range interceptor missile for maintaining air dominance. The LREW concept combines proven components from existing missile systems with new, innovative technologies to provide a leap-ahead increase in overall performance. Efforts included analysis validating systems design, wind tunnel testing, engineering assessments, and kill chain investigations to inform potential future programs for the Navy and Air Force. LREW products transitioned to the Air Force for further development. Details of this project are classified.
