Lightweight Short Range Guided Missile (USSOCOM)

Abstract

This project comparatively tests man-portable, shoulder-fired missile systems that utilize seeker technology for engaging static or moving targets at extended ranges compared to existing unguided weapons systems within the USSOCOM inventory. This provides a more affordable guided munition than the FGM-148 Javelin weapon system. If successful, this technology will transition to USSOCOM’s Program Executive Office, Special Operations Forces Warrior for follow-on procurement. Live fire testing completed in 4Q FY 2022. This project continues in FY 2023 with FY 2022 funding. Final test and closeout reports completed in 1Q FY 2023.
