Flexible Mission Platform
The Flexible Mission Platform (FMP™) is a payload, mission, and platform agnostic system. FMP allows users to host the weapon, sensor, or other mission package of their choice from the vehicle, ship, container, or trailer of their choice.
FMP is built around Moog’s world-renowned military motion control technology. Options include integration of Moog’s high-performance stabilization and weapon stores management systems (SMS), providing missile firing capability to suit any mission.
Overview
For missile hosting applications, Moog’s proven Weapon SMS can be integrated into the FMP. The system allows users to benefit from short lead times, rapid integration and ease of future upgrades due to the flexible, modular design of the Weapon SMS.
The Third Generation Weapon SMS is a modular COTS weapons control system that seamlessly integrates with vehicle sensors and mission management systems to provide the crew with a superior fire-control solution.
This lightweight rugged system is an affordable solution to stores management on air, land and sea platforms. The SMS leverages Moog’s extensive experience in systems integration, internal software development, weapons technology, and fire control solutions. This design ensures FMP’s value for future mission requirements and the selection of differing weapons.
