20mm C-RAM Ammo Improvement
Abstract
As per Joint Urgent Operational Needs Statement (JUONS) CC-0562 for enhanced lethality, M940 20mm ammunition requires research and development efforts to increase the lethality effects of the Land-based Phalanx Weapon System (LPWS) against larger rocket threats. This effort will increase the current capability of the M940 by incorporating design features to provide improvement to probability of Kill. This effort will also evaluate the effects the new ammunition has on the weapon system barrel wear.
