NSM Range Extension
Abstract
As the primary offensive munition in the Marine Corps Ground Based Anti-Ship Missile (GBASM) capability, improving the capability of the Naval Strike Missile (NSM) is a Force Design priority central to the Marine Corps' contribution to the Naval Expeditionary Force's (NEF) surface warfare campaign. The NSM includes the missile, booster, shipping/launch container, flight software and associated items. The goal is to double the range of the current NSM missile over the next five years. Incremental range improvements may be implemented earlier in the production baseline as they complete testing. In FY 2025, Project 6640 will begin development of range extension improvements to the NSM baseline missile. This project will include design, development and test of NSM improvements, separate from Project 6637 which provides for improvements to the ground-based launcher and equipment.
