Guided Interceptor Concept Technology for defense against Rockets, Artillery, and Mortars (RAM), Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), and Cruise Missiles

Abstract

This effort demonstrates a Guided missile-based Interceptor concept initially focused to defeat RAM, UAS, and Cruise Missile 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 system. The complementary effort in PE 0603313A, Project 704, Technical Fire Control Technology, provides the interceptor with a firing solution and launch command based on tracking of the UAS, RAM, and Cruise Missile threats. This effort will support the design, fabrication, integration, HWIL tests, and flight demonstration of multiple guided interceptors. The technologies demonstrated will be applicable to the Indirect Fire Protection Capability (IFPC) and other Air and Missile Defense programs.
