Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy / Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is hosting an Industry Day for the Naval Modular Missile (NMM) Program on February 27, 2026, at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland. This event is not a solicitation but an opportunity for industry partners to engage with the Navy on a transformative surface warfare capability. The NMM program aims to develop a dynamic, multi-mission Family Of Missiles (FOM) with a modular open architecture.
Event Purpose & Scope
The Industry Day will introduce the NMM program, its acquisition strategy, and collaboration opportunities. The goal is to identify performers to support the development of a next-generation missile system that enhances naval lethality and operational flexibility. The program focuses on multi-mission flexibility (long-range hypersonic, scalable configurations), enhanced capacity (multiple weapons per launcher cell), and a modular open architecture developed in collaboration with the U.S. Air Force.
Participation & Next Steps
The Navy encourages participation from non-traditional defense contractors, small businesses, and technology innovators. Industry partners will play a critical role in shaping future surface weapon systems, with potential multiple award opportunities anticipated in a planned Request for Proposals (RFP) in Fiscal Year 2026 (FY26).
Attendees can expect presentations on OPNAV requirements, PEO IWS program overview, open architecture discussions, and Q&A sessions with program leadership.
