Enabling Fuze Advanced Technology
Abstract
Enabling Fuze Advanced Technology focuses on the following key areas: - Extreme Environment Survivable Fuzing - develops fuze components to increase the effectiveness of hypersonic munitions by improving the prediction tools and testing methodologies to evaluate the survivability and functionality of future fuzes. - Tailorable Effects Fuzing and Warhead Initiation - develops fuzing for tailorable effects weapons that encompasses the ability to selectively vary the output of the weapon (Dial-a-Yield) and/or the ability to generate selectable effects (e.g., directed blast, fragmentation). - High Reliability Safe and Arm Technology - develops high reliability fuzing architectures, fuzing components, and Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) reduction features enabling the next generation of cluster munitions to achieve the required <1% UXO goal while Increasing the reliability across the board for future weapon systems. - Target Detection and Burst Point Control develops technologies enabling smaller, more survivable solutions while meeting or exceeding the performance of existing technologies in order to operate in extreme and challenging weapon environments.
