Combat Capability Development Transition
Abstract
Organic Precision Fires (OPF) is a Marine Corps Force Design priority and will provide multiple echelons of the Fleet Marine Force with an organic, loitering, beyond-line-of-sight precision strike capability. OPF has demonstrated through extensive war-gaming and simulation, combined with experience gained in real world operations, that it will significantly improve the organic lethality of infantry and reconnaissance formations. Providing a Hunter (Group 2 UAS) - Killer (loitering munition) combination, OPF will deliver precision effects as well as surveillance before, during, and after striking targets, at ranges beyond 40 kilometers, while reducing the potential for collateral damage. As such, the OPF capability is a critical element of force modernization to close the gap between long range/precision fires and close-combat weapons. In FY 2023, OPF-Mounted (OPF-M) conducted developmental and operational testing including System Integration Events (SIE) for launcher and C2 maturation, munition integration, and an Early Operational Assessment (EOA). Following the EOA, OPF-M will conduct system level and munitions qualification testing in FY 2024 to support transition into production. In FY 2023, the program will release a RFP for OPF-Light (OPF-L). In FY 2024, the program will award two contracts for munitions and C2 systems supporting developmental testing. In FY 2024, OPF-Dismounted (OPF-D) will conduct market analysis to refine requirements for product specifications and release a RFP for contract award in FY 2025.
