Counter Rockets, Artillery, Mortars (RAM), Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), and Cruise Missile Tracking and Fire Control

Abstract

This effort matures and demonstrates system technology to provide 360 degree, near hemispherical coverage for tracking and intercept of UAS and/or Cruise Missile threats. This effort matures fire control methodology for engagement of threat UAS and/or Cruise Missile to generate firing solutions and determine interceptors available for an air defense mission. These efforts will be evaluated through Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) experiments and multiple interceptor flights. Effort will also mature tactical launcher configurations and designs for alternative mission profiles. The technologies demonstrated will be applicable to the Indirect Fire Protection Capability (IFPC) and other Air and Missile Defense programs.
