Assured Precision Weapons and Munitions
Abstract
The Assured Precision Weapons and Munitions (APWM) - FA5 Project is focused on advanced risk mitigation, technology integration, prototyping, and product support to identify, evaluate, mature, test, and demonstrate various assured precision prototype technologies in weapon and munitions components and subsystems within a complex system of systems environment. The APWM Project reinforces the National Defense Strategy's major lines of effort through technology development and prototyping, which increases lethality and ensures future combat overmatch success of the Joint Force against peer/near-peer adversaries. This project also aims to improve program performance and affordability for multiple weapons and munitions Programs of Record (PoRs) via Joint Lethality Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) and Army M-Code Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinated efforts. The APWM Project directly supports top Army Modernization Priorities via the Assured-PNT (A-PNT) and Long Range Precision Fires (LRPF) Cross Functional Team (CFT) imperatives in support of the National Defense Strategy. Funding will support engagement by Weapons and Munitions PNT experts in the development, evaluation, and technology delivery activities of the Air Force's M-Code GPS, Army's PNT related programs, and A-PNT CFT programs in support of LRPF and Counter Area Access/Area Denial missions. Funding will also enable component and subsystem architecture input essential for precision weapons and munitions operating in a NavWar system-of-systems environment, Army M-Code GPS technology integration and evaluation, planning for next generation M-Code GPS integration into the Long Range Precision Guidance Kit (LR-PGK) as the Department of Defense-selected representative Joint precision munition, and maturation of alternative PNT related technologies and solutions to enable informed A-PNT related PoR milestone and Army cross-functional modernization decisions.
