Cannon-Delivered Area Effects Munitions (C-DAEM)
Abstract
The Cannon-Delivered Area Effects Munitions (C-DAEM) Project will provide United States (U.S.) ground forces with the capability to engage area personnel through armored targets, while denying threat forces full operational freedom within the targeted area. An Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) was completed in January 2018 to inform Army acquisition and investment decisions regarding replacement of the current stockpile of 155 millimeter (mm) Dual Purpose Improved Conventional Munitions (DPICM) with Department of Defense (DoD) policy compliant munitions and address anti-armor and extended range capability requirements. The Army validated two materiel solutions for C-DAEM to be pursued in parallel to support the Army's modernization priorities; C-DAEM Armor and C-DAEM DPICM Replacement. C-DAEM Armor will destroy moved and moving self-propelled howitzers, infantry fighting vehicles and tanks. Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 funding will continue to support C-DAEM Armor development and testing activities as well as engineering efforts required to integrate the Military-Code (M-Code) Global Positioning System (GPS) Receiver into the selected C-DAEM Armor objective materiel solution(s).
