Enhanced Precision Interceptor Technology
Abstract
This effort demonstrates two technically different missile-based interceptor concepts with the required accuracy and lethality to defeat rocket, artillery, and mortar (RAM) threats. This effort conducts flight demonstrations of a guided missile-based interceptor with a high explosive warhead and a hit-to-kill guided missile-based interceptor against single and multiple simultaneous RAM threats in the required timeline to protect ground forces. This effort is complementary to the Defense against RAM effort and integrates technology developed in the Technology for Guided Missiles and Interceptors. Beginning in FY12, this effort will be captured in the Guided Interceptor Technology for Defense against RAM and Hit-to-Kill Interceptor Technology for Defense against RAM efforts.
