  • On March 27, 2024, The U.S. Navy plans to install a prototype high-power microwave system on one of its ships as early as 2026, according to the Navy's fiscal 2025 budget documents. The system will come from the Navy's Project METEOR, which is developing a prototype directed energy weapon. System that the military plans to integrate on ships by 2026. METEOR "will provide a low cost-per-shot, deep magazine, tactically significant capability." scope, short-term commitment to a multi-target approach, dual deception and defeat capabilities,” according to budget documents. The system will be the Navy's first high-power microwave, a type of directed energy weapon system that the Army, Navy and Air Force are studying to counter unmanned aircraft systems cheap.
  • In January 2023, BAE Systems has received a $12 million Phase 2 contract from the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to further develop a low cost, all-weather, multi-mode (radar/infrared) open architecture seeker under the Maritime Weapon Innovation Program (MWIP) Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (also known as QUICKSINK).
  • QUICKSINK munitions concept provides air-delivered maritime surface vessel defeat capability for the warfighter via a cost-effective precision-guided munitions kit. The program aims to integrate the new seeker developed by BAE Systems’ FAST Labs research and development organization.
