## What project 622068 buys

This project investigates, develops, and evaluates conventional munitions guidance technologies to establish technical feasibility and military utility of innovative munition seekers, weapon aerodynamics, navigation and control, and guidance subsystem integration/simulation through integration by design and starting with desired mission effect to deliver war winning capabilities to defend the homeland, provide nuclear deterrence, and deliver force projection. Project payoffs include adverse-weather, Global Positioning System (GPS)-degraded and Global Positioning System-denied, networked, and autonomous precision munition guidance capability; increased number of kills per sortie; increased aerospace vehicle survivability; improved weapon reliability and affordability; and improved weapon survivability and effectiveness.

## What is NOT on this page

Congressional marks, the R-2 mission description and acquisition strategy, the industry vs government split of the whole request, and related program elements are recorded at **program-element** grain — an NDAA mark lands on a PE, never on a project.
