Ammunitions Logistics Prototyping
Abstract
Project EL9 Ammunitions Logistics Prototyping supports the future force by improving the distribution, management, reliability and survivability of ammunition through the advanced development, integration, and demonstration of logistics system enablers. These enablers will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of ammunition operations, to include retrograde, while reducing the logistics footprint on the battlefield. Technology areas addressed include handling, distribution, and management (strategic and tactical), prognostics, diagnostics, and asset visibility, explosives safety, and adaptive and environmentally friendly packaging and palletization. The efficient deployment and sustainment of reliable ammunition is vital to success on the battlefield. This project enhances the operational effectiveness of the ammunition logistics system to ensure the distribution of reliable ammunition to the warfighter. Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 funding will be focused on integrating commercial off the shelf and/or relatively mature technologies into ammunition resupply enablers required by the Long Range Precision Fire (LRPF) Cross Functional Team (CFT). They will be focused on ensuring that a low risk resupply process solution exists to support the success of the Extended Range Canon Artillery (ERCA).
