ICBM Reentry Vehicle Applications
Abstract
The Reentry Vehicle Applications Program (RVAP) ensures the ICBM force is equipped with the safest, most reliable, most survivable Reentry Systems, and explores options for common, multi-mission capabilities. The program enables a responsive engineering infrastructure by developing modeling/simulation, ground and flight test platforms to support Reentry System qualifications. The program ensures the availability of long-lead components and materials while identifying life cycle cost reduction methods. In addition, the program matures and tests advanced Reentry System technologies and designs to meet future capability requirements. This includes conducting any necessary studies and assessing technology applications relevant to Mk12A, Mk21, Mk21A and future ICBM Reentry Systems. The program leverages investments by the Science & Technology community and Navy reentry systems applications program. Testing may occur on a space available basis on Air Force and Navy Force Development Evaluation (FDE) flights. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In FY 2022, 0.000M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY 2023, 0.000M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element.
