Abstract

Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile Extended Range (AARGM-ER) integrates hardware and software upgrades to the AARGM missile guidance and control sections, a new rocket motor, and Control Actuation System (CAS) into a new outer mold line able to be launched from tactical aircraft. AARGM-ER's capabilities will add extended range, increased survivability, and improve effectiveness against complex, new, and emerging threats. The FY 2022 program increase funds research and study activities to determine whether the AARGM weapon system family can be integrated on other long endurance platforms, such as the Navy's P-8. The FY 2023 program increase funds research and study activities related to incorporating Solid Fuel Ramjet into the AARGM-ER, which would enable flight at supersonic speeds and leverage existing manufacturing processes and affordable materials, helping to increase capabilities while keeping costs low relative to comparable engines.
