Enhanced Lethality Cannon Munitions
Abstract
The Enhanced Lethality Cannon Munitions (ELCM) Project will evaluate, develop, and qualify new lethality technologies for 155mm cannon artillery munitions and evaluate their effectiveness in mitigating evolving and derived capability gaps, and support transition to production. The ELCM Project supports testing and assessment of the Israeli Military Industries (IMI) Systems M999 advanced anti-personnel munition and also accelerates the qualification of the 155mm XM1128 High Explosive Projectile including the evaluation of Lithographic Fragmentation Technology (LFT); both of these initiatives support the Army Directed Requirement for a Rapid Bridging Solution for the replacement of the 155mm Dual Purpose Improved Conventional Munition (DPICM). FY 2020 funds will support fuze performance evaluation and confirmation with XM1128, as well as continued Insensitive Munitions (IM) testing, Sequential Environmental Test - Safety (SET-S), and Military Standard Environmental Engineering Considerations and Laboratory Tests (MIL-STD-810). Engineering efforts will support the evaluation of the XM1128 test data to determine that the Program is safe, suitable and operationally effective, as well as the gathering of all statutory and regulatory requirements in support of a Milestone C in FY 2021.
