Note
Work in this project continues from the work done under PE 0602150A (Air and Missile Defense Technology) / Project AC9 (High Energy Laser Tactical Vehicle
Demonstrator Technology) and PE 0603466A (Air and Missile Defense Advanced Technology) / Project AD1 (High Energy Laser Tactical Vehicle Demo Advanced
Technology).
This PE supports transitioning the High Energy Laser -Tactical Vehicle Demonstration S&T effort to manufacturing four rapid prototype systems for delivery in FY 2024,
with transition to a program of record in FY 2025.
Project BU9 Indirect Fire Protection Capability (IFPC)- High Energy Laser has been restructured to transfer all funds for IFPC-High Power Microwave (HPM) effort to
Program Element (PE) 0604019A Expanded Mission Area Missile (EMAM) Project CO6 IFPC-HPM.
A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification
These funding lines are directly aligned to the Army Air and Missile Defense Modernization Priority.
Work in this PE, the Expanded Mission Area Missile (EMAM) program, supports the Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) architecture and provides Directed
Energy - Indirect Fire Protection Capability (DE-IFPC) intercept capability to defeat Cruise Missiles (CM), Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS), and Rocket, Artillery, and
Mortar (RAM) threats.
The DE-IFPC is an Air Defense capability consisting of the IFPC-High Energy Laser (HEL) and the IFPC-High Power Microwave (HPM). IFPC-HEL will provide a
ground-based weapon system designed to acquire, track, engage, and defeat the CM, UAS, and RAM threats. The IFPC-HEL requirement consists of a vehicle, 300
kW class laser subsystem, power and thermal subsystem, and a beam control subsystem integrated with a battle management command, control and communication
software. IFPC-HEL provides much needed protection against adversarial threat systems capable of targeting U.S. and Allied forward operating bases, convoys, and
other critical assets.
IFPC-HPM will provide a ground-based weapon system designed to acquire, track, engage, and defeat UAS swarms. The IFPC-HPM requirement consists of a HPM
source, power and thermal subsystem, and an antenna subsystem interoperable with a battle management command, control and communication software. IFPC-HPM
provides much needed protection against adversarial UAS swarms capable of targeting and overwhelming U.S. and Allied air defense systems.
