Abstract

To design, develop, and demonstrate technologies and components for a kinetic energy payload for a 5-inch round. The Navy I-KEET program projectile features a forward expulsion mechanism to expel a multi-component kinetic energy payload with significantly increased on-target energy and expanded lethality footprint relative to its predecessor. The I-KEET round, considered to be a product-improved version of the MK182 KE-ET for ship self defense and force protection with higher lethality against a broader array of threats at a greater range.
