Weapons & Munitions Technologies

Abstract

This project designs, investigates, and evaluates component technologies to enable affordable precision munitions as well as provide increased lethality and performance with reduced logistics and advanced direct/indirect fire capabilities. This project sustains Army science and technology efforts supporting the Ground portfolio. Work in this project is related to, and fully coordinated with efforts in projects H19 and H28 (also in PE 0602624A), PE 0602105A (Materials Technology), PE 0602303A (Aviation Advanced Technology), PE 0602618A (Ballistics Technology), PE 0602782A (Command Control, Communication Technology), project 232 in PE 0603004A (Weapons and Munitions Advanced Technology), PE 0603008A (Electronic Warfare Advanced Technology), and PE 0603772A (Advanced Tactical Computer Science and Sensor Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy Work in this project is performed by the Armament Research, Development, and Engineering Center (ARDEC), at Picatinny Arsenal, NJ in collaboration with a the Army Research Laboratory (ARL), Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD; the Aviation and Missile Research, Development, and Engineering Center (AMRDEC), Huntsville, AL; and the Communications-Electronics Research, Development, and Engineering Center (CERDEC), Fort Belvoir, VA.
