Work will be performed in Tucson, Arizona (61%); McKinney, Texas (22%); and Karlskoga, Sweden (17%), with an estimated completion date of January 2021. Mad-Fires has had to delete warhead/fuze for the rocket assisted/base bleed projectile and necessary electronics/powered tail fins etc to give the very precise control needed in high G plus very accurate and guess expensive FCR radar for the necessary higher accuracy required for HTK, would not be surprised if its more expensive than the DART and expect shorter range?

DART, Driven Ammunition Reduced Time of flight, radio controlled sub-caliber shell with canards, warhead and proximity fuze able to make low level engagement down to 2m over the sea. When it comes to yellow tomatoes, Carolina Gold is a popular determinate variety. The most advanced guided 57mm munition has been developed by the US Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). To me a "littoral combat ship" is one that looks like a mini dreadnought. Tired of reality? The Mk-295 ammo has six operating modes, each programmable by the fire control system to combat all surface, air and shore threats. Since 57mm CIWS do not exist today - the Bofors Mark 3/Mark 110 is certainly not intended nor designed as CIWS - then when totaling up the weights, please remember to include a FCS plus search/tracking radars that can handle sub- or super-sonic ASMs. It was similar to the 7101 but featured only a single ammunition hoist. The 57mm Mk.295 ammunition is based on the Bofors Defence all-target Programmable, Pre-fragmented, Proximity-fuzed (3P) ammunition. For the CG, I think the round is a good fit as it allows for effects on target with much less chance of collateral damage caused by misses. autonomously by downloading an image of the target prior to firing (1). S-60 / Type 59 57mm Anti-Aircraft Artillery. Fiscal 2019 research and development funds in the amount of $11,133,688 are being obligated at the time of award. sferrin ACCESS: USAP Senior Member Joined Jun 3, 2011 If a 76mm shell exploded say within 10ft of a RIB instead of a 57mm shell then both the blast and fragments would be much larger and probably would be able to damage the structure significantly enough to stop a small boat fairly quickly while also giving more time to do so because of the longer range. The more accurate a weapon is, the more lethal it can be. The 57mm HE-4G Cartridge consists of a Radio Frequency Guided Projectile (RFGP) filled with a main charge, a brass cartridge case, a primer, and propellant The 57mm HE-4G Cartridge is designed by L-3 and is currently undergoing Navy . Many of our European Naval allies use the Leonardo / OTO-Melara 76mm Super Rapid gun.6 With an even greater range than the 57mm gun, it has similar advanced fused ammunition types, giving it a multi-role capability as well as using standard HE ammunition. Current 57mm rounds are on the order of $1,000.00 per round to deliver 1.4 kg or about 3lbs of HE- I cannot imagine the cost per round with guidance added.

ComNavOps has noted that the 57mm ammunition is probably the optimal class type from the point of view of range, terminal efficiency, weight and cost ratio. Specifically, MAD-FIRES aims to incorporate enhanced ammunition rounds able to alter their flight path in real time to stay on target, and a capacity to continuously target, track and engage multiple fast-approaching targets simultaneously and re-engage any targets that survive initial engagement. True there is a rocket motor in those but the big challenge was hardening the innards to survive the launch impulse.We just seem to be piling sup-optimal solution on sub-optimal solution, trying to dig our way out but just ending up deeper in the hole with a lighter wallet.LCS was the original problem; and the 57mm popgun compounded it. No one understands why a Saab cost so much until you crash with it". even with a degree of guidance/seeking. What weight/space tradeoffs are you willing to make to go from, say, a 20mm Phalanx to a 57mm CIWS?

Alternatively using a rapid fire mortar(or simply multiple) with heat seeking sensors. The main problem with the ALaMO is apparently intended primarily to target smarms of small boats. the odds of hitting a small, high speed, maneuvering target are very great, This mounting uses the same ammunition as the Mark 2 but also can fire "smart" ammunition. is cued from a designating laser (2).

Just my $0.02,MM-13B.

When high volume, high explosive, high intensity combat comes around (and it always does) we're going to quickly realize that don't have enough smart weapons and can't product replacements quickly enough.Plus, "guided", assumes that you can identify every target on the battlefield. The HE-4G is a low-cost 57 mm guided smart ammunition intended for use on the Navys Littoral Combat Ship and new Fast Frigate, as well as the U.S. Coast Guards National Security and Offshore Patrol Cutters.

Nammo is the true original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for this naval gun, and delivers qualified and combat proven products. It seems to use an internal stabilization system and doesn't use fins like ORCA.

Tomato enthusiasts have long debated the merits of determinate versus indeterminate varieties. The 57 mm L/70 Mark 1 was introduced into the Swedish Navy in 1971 as the 57 mm automatpjs 7101 (57 mm apj 7101) on the Norrkping-class missile boat fast attack craft, also known as the Spica-II-class (not to be confused with the Spica-class torpedo boat (Spica-I)).

The US military seems to always go first for the wizz bang, hyper technology solution.A smaller navy with a tighter budget if asked to build a 'littoral combat ship', would build something approaching a large patrol boat (as opposed to a small, unarmored, lightly armed frigate/corvette which is what the LCS is).It would have multiple crew served weapons - autocannons, machine guns, rockets and perhaps some small AAW missiles.The thing about those weapons is they are cheap, effective at short range in sufficient quantity and a patrol boat of large enough size could house quite a few of these weapons.

Earlier there was some discussion about the 50mm gun in the comments section of a post about the next WPB. The solution to the swarm issue has been starring us in the face for 30 years: take a Mk 49 GMLS (RAM) launcher and modify it to launch 5" ZUNI or 70mm (2.75") rockets in either guided or unguided versions and call it a day.Everything is in current procurement, the training is in place, the logistics are in place, and the system is already installed throughout the fleet.Installed in the launcher, the 5" rocket is roughly a 1:1 replacement for RIM 116, and the 70mm should be either a 3 or 4:1 replacement. | Chuck Hill's CG Blog.
