Conventional Weapons Development
Abstract
This program develops, demonstrates, and integrates ordnance and advanced guidance technologies for air-launched conventional weapons. The program includes development of conventional ordnance technologies including warheads, fuzes, and explosives; and development of advanced guidance technologies including seekers, navigation and control, and guidance. Technologies to be developed, demonstrated, and integrated include blast, fragmentation, penetration, low-collateral damage warheads, variable depth/location fuzing, precise guidance, and high performance and insensitive explosives. Efforts in this program have been coordinated through the Reliance 21 process to harmonize efforts and eliminate duplication. This program is in Budget Activity 3, Advanced Technology Development, since it develops and demonstrates technologies for existing system upgrades and/or new system developments that have military utility and address warfighter needs.
