IFPC2

Abstract

The Expanded Mission Area Missile (EMAM) program supports the Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) architecture and provides Indirect Fire Protection Capability Increment 2 (IFPC Inc 2) the kinetic intercept capability to defeat Cruise Missiles (CM), Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS), and Rocket, Artillery, and Mortar (RAM) threats. The IFPC Inc 2 will provide a ground-based weapon system designed to acquire, track, engage, and defeat the CM, UAS, and RAM threats. The IFPC Inc 2 requirement consists of a launcher, integrated fire control, sensor, and an interceptor to support the Threshold CM and UAS defeat mission and Objective counter-RAM mission with alternative kinetic and non-kinetic defeat solutions. EMAM is no longer acting as a separate program. EMAM will be incorporated into the IFPC Inc 2 program as a potential primary interceptor for the future Enduring IFPC Inc 2 system and provide kinetic intercept capability to defeat CM, UAS and RAM threats. EMAM is now known as the IFPC Inc 2 Interceptor with strategy and funding combined with the IFPC Inc 2 program beginning in Fiscal Year (FY) 2020. The IFPC Inc 2 systems will be integrated with the Army Integrated Air and Missile Defense (AIAMD) Command and Control (C2) architecture.
