Air Launched Effects (ALE)
Abstract
Launched Effects (LE) will provide Army formations the ability to retain their asymmetric advantage in reach, protection, and lethality in the execution of Joint All-Domain Operations (JADO). The expanded lethal and non-lethal airborne capabilities of LE will provide more seamless real-time integration of multiple warfighting functions in the execution of joint attack, reconnaissance, and security operations that create multiple dilemmas for the enemy. Updated strategy based on updated Launched Effects requirements document pending approval in 2QFY24. Through FY24, LE shared a Program Element (PE) with FTUAS (0604113A/EX8). Beginning in FY25, LE established its own PE (0604113A/DH3) to capture LE funding and reporting. Justification: Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 RDT&E PE 0604113A Base funding of $97.369 million will be utilized to support LE-Short Range and LE-Medium Range Middle Tier of Acquisition (MTA) rapid prototyping efforts.
