Surface-Launched Advanced Munition Datalink (SLAMD)
Abstract
SLAMD develops and integrates a tactical projectile data link (PDL) into a gun-launched, maneuvering projectile to enable long-range precision fires in a GPS-denied environment. The data link enables communications between the projectile and a ground-based tracking radar to enable mid-course corrections to the projectile’s path. The data link is also an enabler for ground-to-round and round-to-round communications for tactical applications, such as swarming. In FY 2023, SLAMD completed system and subsystem technical requirements generation, initial PDL design and development, PDL interface control document (ICD) development, radar mode design, and assessment metrics development.
