Adv Lethality & Accuracy Sys for Med Cal Adv Tech

Abstract

This Project matures and demonstrates advanced medium caliber ammunition, weapon, fire control, and Ammunition Handling Systems (AHS) optimized for remote operation. This effort demonstrates cannon super high elevation engagement, high performance stabilization, remote ammunition loading, weapon safety and reliability, improved lethality, accuracy, ability to fire a suite of ammunition from non-lethal to lethal, and escalation of force capability in one system. 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 supports the Army Modernization Priority Next Generation Combat Vehicle. All FY 2020 adjustments align program financial structure to Army Modernization Priorities in support of the National Defense Strategy. Work in this Project is related to and fully integrated with the efforts funded in Program Element PE0604115A (Technology Maturation Initiative). Work in this Project is performed by the U.S. Army Futures Command.
