- Description
- The Tactical Urban Strike Weapon (TUSW) Enabling Capability (EC) Program is a four-year endeavor to research, develop, and demonstrate a warhead with a transition opportunity into the Block II Follow-On To Shoulder-Launched Multipurpose Assault Weapon (FOTS). Revision A of the Capability Development Document (CDD), dated 30 Apr 2007, may be referred to for additional information to guide technology developments towards identified operational requirements. The CDD can be obtained from the ONR Primary or Alternate Technical Points of Contact (TPOCs) listed in this BAA. The CDD includes mission performance objectives for Blocks I and II. Block I maintains existing functions of the Shoulder-Launched Multipurpose Assault Weapon (SMAW) High-Explosive Dual-Purpose round but seeks to improve its performance. Block II seeks to increase the functionality of the warhead by breaching various wall types to allow entry by a Marine. Modular warhead technologies for wall breaching must open a thirty-nine (39)-inch diameter hole with a single round in a 12-inch triple brick wall, and an 8-inch double-reinforced concrete wall (cutting rebar). Research structural reactive and/or energetic materials for munition components to increase the mass fraction of the warhead while improving the insensitivity of munitions. The warhead is constrained by a maximum diameter of eighty-three (83) mm and a mass allocation of 4.2 pounds.
