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 for soldier, ground vehicle and aviation platforms, and for protection of platforms. Efforts in this Program Element )PE) support the Army Science and Technology Lethality Portfolio. 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.)
