Army Operational Fires

Abstract

This Project matures and demonstrates a ground-launched, treaty-compliant weapon system capable of destroying critical relocatable, time critical targets in contested Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) environments. Activities include system-level prototyping to extend the range of Army fires well beyond 499km to complement other fires developments. Army senior leadership approves Technology Maturation Initiative projects prior to budget year programming based on priority and opportunity, ensuring that demonstrations have a high potential for filling capability gaps and transitioning. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project complements PE 0604182A (Hypersonics). Work in this Project is performed by the Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office (RCCTO).
