Developing Advanced Military GPS Receivers And Chips
M-Code receiver and next-gen ASIC will enable secure and reliable military GPS capabilities
BAE Systems received a $247M contract from the U.S. Space Force’s Space and Missile Systems Center to design and manufacture an advanced military GPS receiver and next-generation semiconductor. The technology will provide positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) capabilities to warfighters so they can execute missions in challenging electromagnetic environments.
The Military GPS User Equipment Increment 2 Miniature Serial Interface program will provide improved capabilities for size-constrained and power-constrained military GPS applications, including precision-guided munitions and battery-powered handheld devices. The program will focus on the certification of an advanced application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and the development of an ultra-small, low-power GPS module. Both products will work with the next-generation militar

The Army during the 2000s lagged behind its major rivals in artillery development.
Here s What You Need to Remember: Targeting could pose a problem for these far-away targets. According to Breaking Defense, the Army is working on artificial intelligence and wireless networks so its howitzers and rocket-launchers can receive target coordinates from the service’s own drones as well as from drones, spy planes and satellites belonging to the other armed services.
The U.S. Army just fired two 155-millimeter-diameter howitzer shells out to a distance of 40 miles.
The test shots at Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona on March 6, 2020 signal the beginning of a major overhaul of the Army’s artillery.
The Army’s New 1000-Mile Cannon Will Match The Navy And Air Force s Ranged Strike Capabilities
The U.S. Army still is studying a concept for a gigantic new cannon that could fire shells as far as 1,000 miles.
Key point: The Army also is working with the Navy to develop a common hypersonic glide vehicle, which would launch atop a rocket then travel 1,400 miles or farther at a top speed exceeding Mach 5.

The new Strategic Long-Range Cannon could give the ground-combat branch roughly the same kind of fast deep-strike capability that the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy possess with their warplanes and cruise missiles.
