Abstract

The current mounted breaching system, the M58 Mine Clearing Line Charge (MICLIC), is a rocket-projected explosive line charge that was initially fielded over 50 years ago and is becoming increasingly less effective against modernized threat obstacles which does not support Multi-Domain Operations (MDO). This effort will focus on the development of the Next Generation Breaching Technology - Advanced Breacher system, an MDO-capable modular mission payload which will provide greater effectiveness against current and emerging threat obstacles and enhanced operational reliability, supportability, mobility and survivability beyond the current state. The target platform for Advanced Breacher is the Next Generation Combat Vehicle - Remote Combat Vehicle-Medium (NGCV-RCV-M) and has been endorsed by the NGCV Cross Functional Team (CFT) to fulfill the RCV-M breaching requirements. The modularity also allows for integration with other platforms and backwards compatibility with existing platforms.
