Warheads/ Energetics Technologies
Abstract
This project investigates and designs enabling warhead and energetic technologies such as novel warhead architectures, new propellant techniques, and high-density explosives to produce smaller, lighter, more effective, multi-role warheads. 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 H18 and H19 in this PE, PE 0602303 (Aviation Advanced Technology), PE 0602618A (Ballistics Technology), and project 232 in PE 0603004A (Weapons and Munitions Advanced Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy This work is performed by the U.S. Army Armament Research, Development, and Engineering Center (ARDEC), at Picatinny Arsenal, NJ in collaboration with the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) at Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD; and the Aviation and Missile Research, Development, and Engineering Center (AMRDEC), Huntsville, AL.
