Weapon Systems
Abstract
Manufacturing technology efforts focused on current and future comprehensive weapons system platforms which include munitions and formations that improve range, lethality, mobility, precision, target acquisition and force protection capabilities within multi-domain operations. Additionally, these efforts support the Army modernization priorities for long-range precision fires (LRPF) as well as air and missile defense (AMD). LRPF is focused on strategic fires, precision strike missile capabilities, and extended range cannon artillery. AMD includes directed energy systems and interceptors focused on providing maneuverability for short range air defense, and indirect fire protection capabilities. Efforts are aligned to programs within the executive office of Missile and Space, and the joint executive office Armaments & Ammunition. Formerly titled Long Range Precision Fires and Air & Missile Defense. This effort is not new, it has been retitled to better align to both current and future acquisition systems.
