57th Annual Fuze Conference



The 57th Annual NDIA Fuze Conference welcomes the participation of both domestic and allied fuze designers, manufacturers and component suppliers, and research organizations along with government representatives.

This year's theme is "Collaboration for Fuzing Challenges"; This encompasses efforts between and among companies, services, countries and individual programs and with academia to resolve the multitude of issues challenging the fuzing community in meeting the needs of the warfighter.

Applications include Guidance Integrated Fuzing, Target Discrimination for Fuzing, Multipoint and Variable Initiation, Ignition Safety Devices, Miniature Electronic Safety & Arming Devices, and High-g Hardened Fuzing. Also included are enabling technologies such as advanced sensors, power sources, high voltage components, MEMS S&A/sensors, and small conventional S&A devices.

This conference provides the opportunity to discuss and share ideas to help advance the state-of-the-art for the next generation of fuzing that meets the users' needs. Please join us and share your success and lessons learned.


This event is UNCLASSIFIED. The meeting format has been established to support individual presentation of technical papers by military, government, and industry executive and technical personnel. Papers can be submitted for presentation at an "Open Session" or a "DoD/U.S. DoD Contractors Only" closed session. Classified abstracts or papers will not be accepted.

Based on historical precedent, Open Session abstracts and papers have a greater likelihood of being selected and will reach a broader audience. Where possible, related papers will be grouped together to enhance audience interest and participation. Authors can make a request to have specific papers, related to theirs, be grouped together, based on availability.

Papers are solicited for topics relating to requirements, technical developments and innovation; program status; and methods of addressing DoD and STANAG mandated changes. Presenters are encouraged to select fresh topics, which would be of interest to an audience of fuze managers and technical personnel. Presentation of non-U.S. papers at this conference is encouraged.

ABSTRACTS  - Individuals are required to submit a concise abstract of 200 words or less no later than March 14, 2014. Authors will be notified whether or not their proposed paper has been accepted for presentation the week of March 28, 2014. Any abstract/paper submitted and or selected for presentation at the cancelled 2013 Fuze Conference will need to be resubmitted in response to this Call for Papers.  We intend to have all new abstracts for consideration at the 2014 Conference.
