GIF & CCF

• GIF is a Technology Demonstration Program at NSWCDD Sponsored by OSD-ATL

• GIF is being co-developed by the Army & Navy as the design concept for the Army CCF Program

• US Army is developing a requirement for CCF. OPM CAS is the developer for USAFAS

GIF & CCF

• GIF is a low-cost, fuze-sized module that is intended to replace a “NATO standard” fuze

• GIF corrects the ballistic trajectory in 2D, resulting in a small terminal miss distance

• GIF provides “First Round “First Round -- Steel on Target”Steel on Target”

• GIF technology can be applied to literally literally millions of existing millions of existing 155mm, 105mm, 5”, 76mm projectiles, and 120mm and 81mm mortars.

GPS Satellites

• Ballistic Solution• Initialize Fuze

• Despin Nose• Acquire GPS

• Predict Miss• Deploy Controls• Steer to Target

Program Plan• Complete Technology Demonstration Phase w/

closed loop guided gun firing

• Award up to 2 Contracts (from NSWC) for development of GIF based on Gov’t TDP

– 100 Fuzes for qualification testing

– Proposals may deviate from GIF baseline TDP to improve performance, reduce cost or schedule

Program Plan

• Down select for following options – Build 1000 GIFs for Army user test– Course Correcting Fuze development (SDD)

• Army to take GIF design into CCF SDD program in FY06

• CCF Initial Operational Capability in FY10

Conclusion

• Closed loop guided demo shot currently scheduled for October of this year

• Gov’t plans to hold pre-solicitation conference prior to RFP release– Review baseline design and SOW– Look for a FEDBUZOPPS announcement this

summer
