Guided Interceptor Technology for defense against Rockets, Artillery, and Mortars
Abstract
This effort demonstrates a guided missile-based interceptor system with a high explosive warhead initially focused to defeat rockets, artillery, and mortars (RAM) threats with the potential for precision ground-to-ground applications. This effort designs, fabricates, evaluates, and flight demonstrates a guided missile-based interceptor and launch unit. The complementary efforts: Technical Fire Control Technology provides the interceptor with a firing solution and launch command and Counter RAM Tracking and Fire Control, in PE 0603313A Project 704, tracks the RAM threat. Beginning in FY12, this effort combines the Defense against RAM and Enhanced Precision Interceptor Technology efforts to provide more detail on the two technically different missile-based counter-RAM systems that are being flight demonstrated.
