The Extended Area Protection and Survivability (EAPS) Integrated Demonstration (ID) Program is a program managed in the Aviation and Missile Research, Development, and Engineering Center (AMRDEC). The prime contractor is Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control located in Grand Prairie, Texas. The EAPS ID Program is developing technologies to counter rockets, artillery and mortar threats. Lockheed proposed a very small, two foot long by 1.5” diameter interceptor known as the Miniature Hit-to-Kill (MHTK) Interceptor. AMRDEC, in collaboration with Lockheed Martin, has been developing this concept since 2005 and has conducted three successful flight tests to date. This report details recent accomplishments in the specific areas of seeker development, air-frame development, high speed wind tunnel efforts and associated aerodynamic database generation.
