Abstract

Continuation of Primary Hardware Development/Pre-Planned Product Improvement (Tech Refresh) efforts for the AIM-9X weapon system. This includes Systems Engineering & Program management, as well as support required to ensure AIM-9X missile integration with threshold US Air Force aircraft platforms. This also includes efforts to redesign missile components in order to resolve obsolescence to ensure missile producibility and increase reliability. It will incorporate anti-tamper and cyber security technology improvements, implement cost reduction initiatives, and comply with the Insensitive Munitions (IM) requirements. In addition, the program will evaluate and begin risk reduction efforts that will address hardware and software improvements to facilitate follow-on capability and mitigate obsolescence.
