Standard Missile-2 BLK IIIC

Abstract

The SM-2 BLK IIIC Accelerated Acquisition Program will deliver an Initial Capability in FY23. The funding allows for the SM-2 BLK IIIC program to transition to a SM-2 BLK IIICU program with the integration of a new electronics unit required to address obsolescence. This upgrade is necessary to continue procurement of the SM-2 BLK IIIC capability and is being conducted in coordination with the international community via FMS cases. The SM-2 BLK IIIC/IIICU is the primary AAW weapon for DDG's and the FFG 62 class of ships which are not planning to include missile illuminators required for legacy semi-active missiles.
