Abstract

The Extensible Launching System (ExLS) is a potential low cost alternative method to integrate existing certified encanistered missiles/munitions (like Nulka) into VLS equipped platforms. ExLS is a Launcher-in-a-Launcher that requires no VLS canister development. This approach maximizes the USN investment by leveraging All Up Round (AUR) and electronics development, testing, certification and associated qualification costs. Automated Missile Tracking will evalutate a multitude of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) passive devices to ensure that safe implementation is possible aboard a US Navy combatant.
