The US Army continues to develop essentially free-flight or ballistics rockets for providing counterbattery and area fire. The free-flight rocket can deliver high volumes of TOT fire for the destruction of high-value time sensitive, area-type targets. If a relatively inexpensive guidance and control package could be integrated into the free-flight rocket such that the accuracy of these missiles was increased to the 2.0-2.5 mil range, their effectiveness against hard point targets could be significantly increased. Such a high-accuracy, command-guided ballistic rocket could replace some general and direct support roles calling for munitions to be delivered on targets with high precision and destructiveness and roles where augumentation fires are delivered in close support of maneuver elements.
