The motor, designed by the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Aviation & Missile Center (AvMC) and built by GDOTS, demonstrated performance results within one percent of analytical predictions. This outcome highlights the precision of the design and manufacturing collaboration between the Army and industry partner.
“This successful test reflects the strength of the partnership between GDOTS and the U.S. Army,” said Chris Haynes, senior vice president and general manager at General Dynamics OTS. “We are proud to play a role in showcasing multi-domain concepts, demonstrating advanced capabilities, and testing future concepts for our warfighters.”
The initiative aims to deliver affordable, precision massed-fires and increase magazine depth for U.S. forces. It is part of broader efforts to develop future combat capabilities through close industry-military cooperation.
GDOTS, a business unit of General Dynamics, specialises in the design, engineering and production of munitions, energetics, weapons, armaments and missile subsystems. The company provides advanced solutions supporting the U.S. military and allied operations across all strategic and tactical levels.
