Market Characteristics
• Buyers Divided Between U.S. Department of Defense and Major Weapon System Primes
• Addressable U.S. Fuze Market is $200M - $250M per Year
• Foreign Sales (Direct) Difficult Due to:– Low Cost, Low Performance Indigenous Competition– “Fortress Europe” Mentality for Major Weapon Systems– FMS Complications– U.S. Department of State Export Restrictions

Fuzing Issues
![Page 23: Fuzing Industrial Base and Market Overview Industrial Committee of Ammunition Producers February 12, 2002](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d8a5503460f94a70b6f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Fuzing Concerns
Requirement for consolidation/coordination Some taken place, more required
Support Industrial base through split procurements
Movement to Total Systems Program Responsibility Means buying fuzes through Primes High risk for control of performance/safety and configuration
Velocity of Fuze Base IPT Initiatives well intended, but operating slower than market pace
Investment in Technology Have coordinated, open exchange of roadmaps Explore using Air Force model
![Page 24: Fuzing Industrial Base and Market Overview Industrial Committee of Ammunition Producers February 12, 2002](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d8a5503460f94a70b6f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Issues
• Many, if not all, in the “Fuze Industrial Base” depend heavily on profit from Foreign Sales to finance Capital Investments and provide the “staying power” to be viable members of a ready base. Government competition with industry for the FMS business is counter productive to strengthening the base.
• The Army must continue to improve its use of “Best Value” contracting as a means of preserving the industrial base and its critical technical know-how.

Raymond Engineering Operations
• Issues– Business volume and methods of procurement are
not attractive for business• New fuze business many times requires suppliers to
take enormous risks
– Lack of R&D investment by U.S. Government to Fuze suppliers
– Difficult to attract and maintain engineering skills– Prime contractors doing more fuze work
![Page 26: Fuzing Industrial Base and Market Overview Industrial Committee of Ammunition Producers February 12, 2002](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d8a5503460f94a70b6f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
BT Fuze Products Issues
• Not enough money to replenish aging stockpile• Support for North american Base only to restrict procurement in a
declining market• Sustaining a technology core in a declining market• New markets (smart weapons) controlled by large weapons primes
– Self facilitization required– Not directed by MILDEPS to solicit a “restricted base”
• No government funding for specialized capital equipment• Foreign competition, sometimes using U.S. technology• Lack of Army Customer appreciation of constricdting and
consolidating industry base• Multiple arsenal managers of government fuze programs• Heavy arsenal tax on production appropriations• Insufficient funding to sustain R&D engineering base
![Page 27: Fuzing Industrial Base and Market Overview Industrial Committee of Ammunition Producers February 12, 2002](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649d8a5503460f94a70b6f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
EDI Fuze Industry Issues
• New technologies utilized in fuze programs have limited application outside of fuze industry.
• Difficult for suppliers to justify IR&D investment in new technologies to advance the state of the art.
• Limited number of production programs will continue to lead to fewer viable suppliers who can commit to required levels of support and technical expertise.
• Need for levels of NRE funding which make development of new technology financially viable and attractive to capable potential suppliers.

KDI Precision Products
• Issues– Stop Government from Competing with Industry on Fuze
Development Programs• Define Requirements• Approve Safety• Pursue Far Horizon Technology
– Award True Multi-year Production Contracts
– Don’t Reduce the Rewards for Competitive Performance by Splitting (Rare) Production Contracts
– Pool DOD wide Fuzing S&T Money Where Common Fuzing Solutions Are Possible
– Encourage “Build to Spec” Procurements

KEY ISSUES:
• Lack of domestic suppliers for critical components
• Weak customer support for true IPT commitment

Munitions Industrial Base Task Force
• Issue– Lack of Funding for Fuze RDT&E
• Impact– Available Technology is not Applied to
Weapons Systems– Weapon Functionality Less Than Could be
Realized
