Welcome to

As a Department of Defense (DoD)
Energetics Center, the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Indian Head Division (NSWC
IHD) is a leader in the Navy’s Energetics Enterprise—it is our job to research
and provide energetics and energetic systems for our fighting forces around the
globe.
“Energetic systems” refers to explosives, propellants,
pyrotechnics and their immediately related components. Complementing our
energetic materials formulation work, we research, develop, test and engineer
the range of technologies necessary to deliver ordnance to the military.
In short, the U.S. Navy and other DoD agencies and allied
nations come to NSWC IHD for energetic systems solutions—we support the
warfighter of today, anticipate their future needs, and make discoveries for the
next generation. |
