Description
Mission — Joint Munitions Technology
This program supports the Department's priorities to reestablish deterrence by building munitions technology advantages that solve operational and mission-focused challenges. The Joint Enhanced Munitions Technology Program (JEMTP), within the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E)) was established to develop and demonstrate joint munitions enhancing technologies (energetics, warheads, propulsion systems, advanced lethality mechanisms, fuzes and fuze components, and target detection) to provide future kinetic fires capabilities and ensure advantage for U.S. warfighters. The program’s plans and investments are informed by threat-opportunity based analyses from Joint Force campaign scenarios. The JEMTP activities within Program Element 0602000D8Z are executed under two Project Codes: 076 - Enhanced Munitions and 355 – Energetics Technologies. These advancements through JEMTP provide foundational capabilities that impact a wide range of munitions including One-Way Attack, Counter-small UAS technologies, and munitions that may be utilized for Homeland Missile Defense. The JEMTP program also provides technologies that support munitions and energetics organic Industrial Base resiliency and increased production rates. Project Code 076 - The Enhanced Munitions Project focuses on investments of novel fuzing, power sources, target detection sensing technologies, and counter-countermeasure technologies that are enablers for enhancing future munition lethality and survivability. Alternative Positioning, Navigation, & Timing (Alt-PNT) is a new project focus starting in FY26. Alt-PNT technology investments will enable munitions to maintain effective operations in contested scenarios. Project Code 355 - This program executes the Energetics Technology project focused on investigation and research of energetic materials (ingredients and formulations) to enhance munitions capability and address supply chain resilience. The Energetics Technology Project supports and enables DoD Service strategies and roadmaps for advanced energetics material synthesis and formulation development; to accelerate the application and transition of advanced energetics materials into DoD munitions and the energetics manufacturing base; and to apply modern, agile energetics processing and manufacturing technologies.
Mission — Enhanced Munitions
The Enhanced Munitions project develops cross-cutting, enabling munitions technologies that are broadly applicable across service munitions. The project invests in sensors, sensor data fusion for navigation, propulsion, warheads, and fuzing that enable enhanced performance of U.S. munitions in both permissive and denied environments. The Enhanced Munitions project continues to address other critical munitions technologies outside of advanced energetics that enable the Energetics Technology project investments to be effectively incorporated into munitions systems. Lethality increases are not only dependent on advanced energetics, but also depend on optimized munitions placement and burst point optimization. Munitions investments in survivability against harsh environments and adversary countermeasures are necessary to allow the munition to reach and prosecute its intended target. Starting in FY 2026, the Alternative Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) project will accelerate critical PNT technologies and PNT data needs to ensure munitions are accurate and lethal in GPS-denied or contested environments. Investments in munitions-specific PNT will be leveraging a modular open systems approach, which will increase technology development and flexibility to have specific PNT solutions for any given munition.
Mission — Energetics Technology
U.S. weapons systems still largely rely on decades-old explosive and propellant technologies that limit Joint Force options to deter, and if necessary, defeat adversaries in conflict. The Energetics Technology project was established to expedite investigation, research, and transition of novel energetics materials, chemicals, and processes that enable improvements to existing and future munitions performance. The investments and efforts under this project enable modern manufacturing and processing while helping to bolster U.S. energetics supply chain resiliency.
Justification
Accomplishments & Planned Programs (3)
Enhanced Munitions
Project investments are derived from the operationally informed, Department of Defense Munitions S&T Strategic Priorities, focused on developing enabling technologies to enhance warhead lethality, propulsion performance, target detection and burst point control, and weapon survivability. Technologies under investigation apply machine learning and artificial intelligence for terminal target sensing and recognition that enable the next generation of kinetic weapons capabilities.
Alternative Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) for Weapons
Alternative Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) investments are operationally informed and will address Department munitions and PNT S&T strategies, which will accelerate Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA)-compliant PNT technologies optimized for munitions lethality and form factors, enabling technology development with transition into operational systems. Technologies will consider fusing PNT sensor data from multiple non-GPS sources to assure munition performance in all conditions.
Energetics Technology
Energetics Technology project investments are focused on advanced energetics ingredient development and formulation research focused on improving munitions propulsion and warhead performance. The project collaborates with the energetics systems development and manufacturing base to facilitate and accelerate munitions technology development, demonstration, and transition. Technology efforts include energetics development for high efficiency propellants, high performance explosives (e.g. enhanced blast and fragmentation, target penetration, and underwater effects), use of efficient, flexible, and adaptable processes, and application of bio-technology developed critical energetics chemicals. Funded efforts are driven by program office, service, and operational needs as outlined and planned within the DoD Munitions S&T Strategic Priorities and cross-cutting technology gaps identified through rigorous threat assessment and operational evaluation.
