30mm Lethality
Abstract
The 30mm Lethality project funds the development of a suite of 30x173mm caliber cartridges, which includes anti-personnel tactical and training cartridges and anti-materiel tactical and training cartridges, as well as Airburst Munition cartridges for Urgent Materiel Release (UMR) and Full Materiel Release (FMR). The objective is to enhance the operational effectiveness and lethality of the Stryker Infantry Carrier Vehicle (ICV), Next Generation Combat Vehicle (NGCV), and any Army Fighting Vehicles that are equipped with a 30x173mm weapon system. The tactical cartridges will provide an organic direct fire capability to support infantry at a greater range and will improve lethality when engaging dismounted infantry and light armored vehicles. The training cartridges will be ballistically matched to the tactical cartridges, allowing the Warfighter to train in a cost effective manner. The Airburst munitions will provide the Warfighter with increased lethality against troops in the open, counter defilade and anti-tank guided missiles (ATGM). This project will leverage earlier efforts in support of the Stryker Operational Needs Statement (ONS) for Increased Lethality for the 2nd Calvary Regiment (2CR), United States Army Europe (USAREUR) (HQDA ONS 15-20590). FY 2020 funding will support three Design Engineering Tests (DET) and a Design Verification Test (DVT) for the non-airburst 30x173mm suite of ammunition. FY 2020 will also support Milestone B and Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) contract award for the 30x173mm Airburst munition.
