Guided MLRS

Abstract

The United States (U.S.) Army continues to explore ways to enhance Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (GMLRS) rockets and common components and to mitigate aging technology issues under Project EG3 Guided MLRS. The Army is requesting funding for the following GMLRS Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) activities: (1) evaluation of enhanced operational capabilities to provide more flexibility across the target set to include increased range, flight performance, and end-game optimization; (2) investigation of potential life cycle cost savings through mitigation of aging technology and second source qualification; (3) Preplanned Product Improvement (P3I); (4) evaluation and development of technologies to enhance overall product performance and survivability to include Assured Positioning, Navigation and Timing (APNT); and (5) system test and evaluation. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 dollars in the amount of $19.473 million will continue to investigate and develop Objective Additional Performance Attribute (APA) options including Extended Range GMLRS, APNT solutions, and continue qualification of key rocket upgrades.
