Weapon Concept Development
Abstract
This project develops, refines, integrates, demonstrates, and assesses ordnance and guidance technologies to reduce risk for potential conventional weapons acquisitions. The project concentrates in two effort areas, Air-to-Air Concept Development and Air-to-Ground Concept Development. The project focuses on risk reduction of advanced explosives, fuzes, warheads, sub-munitions, and weapon airframes, carriage and dispensing; as well as innovative munition seekers, weapon aerodynamics, navigation and control, and guidance subsystem integration/simulation. This project includes the initiation and development of programs addressing DAF capability gaps and provides technologies for transformational future force capabilities. Transformational efforts will be identified through a competitive process and be responsive to DAF design priorities. Selected efforts will be designated as transformational, indicating enterprise-level priority.
