Background Capability Objectives

Todays weapons are excellentbut we need to
continue improving to prepare for future
conflicts
Targets and threats are evolving asymmetrically
Current weapons have filled many capability
objectiveshowever things have changed
Current weapons developed to defeat enemy in a
war zonenot a civilian Urban Operations
environment
Persistence and variable effects are needed

Tomorrows Vision..Starts with todays planning

Background Sources of Capability Needs
JCIDS

Background 2004 Key Takeaways

Enabling Network Centric Weapons is Team Eglins
primary
thrust for the near to mid term
SDB II and supporting technologies for moving
targets
Weapons data link and architecture for net-ready
ability
Technology to grow weapon ISR/BDI/BDA capability
Longer ranges, increased load out, all with
flexible targeting
Directed Energy and Area Dominance are natural
extensions of
Net Centric Weapons
These concepts are guiding our mid to far term
efforts
Hard Deeply Buried Targets (HDBT) and
Chemical/Biological/
Radiological/ Nuclear, or High Yield
Explosive (CBRNE) solutions
are being explored and will be further
developed as warfighter
requirements solidify

OBJECTIVE Disrupt/Deny CB targets while
minimizing collateral effects
Chemical and biological production and storage
facilities
Weapons of mass destruction
REQUIREMENT Increment I CFAD Capability
Development Document (CDD) in coordination
Disrupt use and deny access
Increment II CFAD CDD follows in FY06
Bulk neutralization of agents
J8 expected to release Joint Capabilities
Document to address Find-Fix-Track-Target portion
of CBrne moving target kill chain

Industry Invited to Submit White Papers

Counter - CBrne... Counter Force Agent
Defeat Increment I
Capability Ability to defeat hardened chemical
and biological storage facilities

Optimize blast/fragmentation/fill
Maximize agent spillage
Minimize agent aerosolization
Minimize target structural damage
Minimal collateral effects
Two orders of magnitude reduction in release of
viable agent compared to high explosive BLU-109
Platforms

OBJECTIVE Capability to achieve desired effects
on high value targets in anti-access environments

REQUIREMENT
Phase I Modernize current bomber fleet across
FYDP
Phase II Can we field new strike capabilities
based on current technology in the 2015-2020
timeframe?
