IFPC-High Energy Laser
Abstract
This effort will provide for the planning, prototype manufacturing, and testing of 4 IFPC-HEL rapid prototypes with residual combat capability to support the IFPC mission. The IFPC-HEL is a 300 kilowatt (kW) modularized laser weapon system that can be integrated onto a Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT) Palletized Load System (PLS) to defend fixed and semi-fixed sites from Cruise Missiles (CM), Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), and Rocket, Artillery, and Mortar (RAM) threats delivered with residual combat capability at the Platoon Level in FY 2024 as part of the Indirect Fire Protection Capability (IFPC) Battery in support of Multi-Domain Operations (MDO). IFPC-HEL builds on the technology maturation and demonstration from PE 0602150A (Air and Missile Defense Technology) / Project AC9 (High Energy Laser Tactical Vehicle Demonstrator Technology) and PE 0603466A (Air and Missile Defense Advanced Technology) / Project AD1 (High Energy Laser Tactical Vehicle Demo Advanced Technology).
