XM1128
The XM1128 "Insensitive Munition High Explosive Base Burn Projectile" is a 155mm boosted artillery round designed to achieve a maximum range of 30–40 km. It is used for fragmentation and blast effect against personnel and/or materiel. The development of this round follows testing of (and is based on aspects of) boosted M795-series test projectiles. The XM1128 is not yet in production, but the first successful test firings have already taken place.
The XM1128 is expected to be compatible with a nose-mounted guidance system—specifically, the XM1156 Precision Guidance Kit, which fits the standard fuse threading common to several types of rounds.
==Development==
The design program for the XM1128 was established in FY2011 with the stated purpose of addressing USMC requirements for artillery ammunition capable of 30–40 km range. It is also designed for improved accuracy. It carries a larger payload than the aging M549 Extended Range Projectile or ERP, which is the previous boosted round the XM1128 is designed to replace. The XM1128's range of 30 km far exceeds conventional (non-boosted) artillery rounds such as the M107 projectile which has a 17 km range.
The Army is currently in the process of adopting the USMC requirement for the XM1128. Once approved, the plan for the XM1128 is to enter the Engineering & Manufacturing Development Phase in the acquisition process as a fully funded program. Tooling and processes have been developed and the initial production batch has been delivered to the proving grounds for testing by USMC resources.
