GMLRS Alternative Warheads

Abstract

The United States (U.S.) Army initially funded the development of the Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (GMLRS) Alternative Warhead (AW) increment under the EG2 - GMLRS Alternative Warheads project code. GMLRS AW entered full rate production in 2015. The 26 October 2016 Deputy Secretary's Management Action Group (DMAG) directed the Army to define and execute an effort for a GMLRS modification that would integrate a seeker into the rocket. Funding identified in Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 - FY 2022 will support the technology transition, development, and demonstration of a seeker into the GMLRS and will help define a common seeker solution for the entire MLRS Family of Munitions (MFOM). The modification to integrate a seeker will leverage the Extended Range (ER) GMLRS and culminate in a proof of concept demonstration of the seeker capability.
