ELECTROMAGNETIC GUNS
Abstract
This activity is the Electro Magnetic (EM) railgun program that is focused on developing the technology to launch a long range projectile from Navy ships. EM railgun is being considered for multi-mission applications including USMC Naval Surface Fire Support, anti-surface warfare (ASUW) and ship self defense from missiles and small boat threats. Effective FY2018, the Electro Magnetic (EM) Railgun program funding, plans, and associated justification has been realigned to the new innovative naval prototype (INP) PE 0602792N Innovative Naval Prototypes.
