Insensitive Munitions (IM) Integration

Abstract

Optimize multiple IM technologies to improve munitions survivability and warfighter safety. Advanced IM Technologies will be developed in the areas of warhead, propulsion and propellants, explosives, packaging, and barriers. Efforts will increase the number of IM compliant ammunition items fielded in order to mitigate munitions reaction to unplanned stimuli such as fire, fragments, enclosed heat build-up (cook-off), bullets, adjacent munitions reaction (sympathetic detonation), and shape charge jet attacks.
