The GEN II IFPC-HPM prototypes will increase effective range through increased peak power and configurable polarization; lethality through waveform advancements; reliability, maintainability, and safety based on soldier feedback on Generation I; with initial delivery planned for Q1FY26 and testing supported by spares and contractor logistics support.
