Close Combat Technology

Abstract

This program includes development efforts to upgrade Close Combat technologies, energetics, and munitions, such as counter explosives, grenades, demolitions, shoulder launched munitions, pyrotechnic simulators, non-lethal ammunition/systems, networked munitions and mines, that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production. This program will identify, characterize, study, analyze, test and develop technologies to resolve close combat munition reliability, safety, environmental, storage, standardization, obsolescence and manufacturing/producibility issues. FY 2016 funds will be used to improve the MK3A2 Offensive Hand Grenade and develop an improved Claymore Force-on-Force Training Aids, Device, Simulator and Simulation (TADSS) Trainer.
