William Parker, the service\u2019s lead on air and missile defense modernization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The board brings recommendations to the Joint Requirements Oversight Council, which supervises the development of new capabilities and acquisition efforts, for final approval of program requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2020\/10\/01\/general-dynamics-gets-12-billion-to-build-short-range-air-defense-systems-for-us-army\/\" target=\"_blank\">M-SHORAD system\u2019s development took place<\/a> in record time <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/smr\/road-to-warsaw\/2016\/06\/14\/us-army-grapples-with-short-range-air-defense-gap-in-europe\/\" target=\"_blank\">as the result of an urgent operational need identified in 2016<\/a> for the European theater. The Army received the requirement to build the system in February 2018. It took 19 months from the time the service generated the requirement to the delivery of prototypes for testing in the first quarter of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2021\/10\/11\/first-platoon-of-short-range-air-defense-systems-get-workout-ahead-of-bigger-events\/\" target=\"_blank\">first platoon to receive the M-SHORAD<\/a>, a Stryker combat vehicle-based platform that includes a mission equipment package designed by Leonardo DRS and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/industry\/2023\/06\/20\/raytheon-rebrands-as-rtx\/\" target=\"_blank\">RTX\u2019s<\/a> Stinger vehicle missile launcher, deployed to Europe in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army is now fielding its third M-SHORAD battalion at Fort Cavazos, Texas. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2021\/04\/23\/first-short-range-air-defense-systems-deploy-to-europe\/\" target=\"_blank\">first M-SHORAD battalion remains in Germany, <\/a>and the second is based at Fort Sill, Oklahoma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen we look at Increment 1 of M-SHORAD, that initially came out as part of a directed requirement, so we\u2019re following up right now through the requirements process,\u201d Parker told Defense News in a recent interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Parker\u2019s team briefed protection capability to the Functional Capabilities Board in December. That organization falls under the purview of the Joint Capabilities Board. Now the JCB will consider the Increment 1 capabilities development document in April, Parker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs we continue to codify those requirements,\u201d he explained, the service is looking closely at sustainment of the capability. Upon completion, \u201cthat\u2019s going to really put us in a good place for being able to get this thing fully transitioned and get that capability out to the warfighter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two more variants of M-SHORAD are coming. The Army has concurrently been working on a 50-kilowatt laser weapon version, known as Directed Energy M-SHORAD, and is in the process of holding a competition to bring a new and improved interceptor replacement for the current Stinger missile. DE M-SHORAD is considered the second increment of the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The directed-energy variant was originally to become a program of record in 2023, with the possibility of a new competition opening up for vendors to supply alternatives to the current prototype solution from Kord Technologies using a laser developed by Raytheon, an RTX company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office, which is spearheading the effort, determined<a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/digital-show-dailies\/ausa\/2022\/10\/14\/shorad-laser-weapon-will-stay-in-development-phase-longer-than-planned\/\" target=\"_blank\"> the system would need more time in development.<\/a> The new plan is to transfer the program to the Program Executive Office Missiles and Space in fiscal 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Parker said the rapid capabilities office continues to work on the technology and wants to keep DE M-SHORAD\u2019s move to a program of record on the same timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The third increment of the program is primarily focused on providing a next-generation Stinger missile and 30mm proximity fuse ammunition, which will help \u201cgain capability within that maneuver SHORAD and over in the counter-[unmanned aircraft systems] space,\u201d Parker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The service wants the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2022\/04\/07\/us-army-initiates-plan-to-replace-stingers-with-next-gen-interceptor\/\" target=\"_blank\">Stinger missile replacement for SHORAD<\/a> to be faster, survive jamming and more easily hit tougher targets like drones, the service\u2019s program executive officer for missiles and space, Brig. Gen. Frank Lozano, told Defense News last fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In September 2023, the Army awarded RTX and Lockheed Martin with contracts <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/industry\/techwatch\/2023\/10\/09\/us-army-pursues-faster-more-survivable-stinger-missile-replacement\/\" target=\"_blank\">to competitively develop the Stinger replacement<\/a>. RTX is the provider of the legacy Stinger missile currently used in the Army\u2019s SHORAD capability and also in a man-portable configuration. The Army no longer produces Stinger missiles, so the service is pulling from current inventory to meet the mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the Army has sent some of its refurbished Stingers to Ukraine in response to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/flashpoints\/ukraine\/\" target=\"_blank\">Russia\u2019s invasion of the country<\/a>, and no longer builds new Stinger missiles, it still plans to take five years to develop and qualify the new interceptor and move into low-rate production.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Army is
