The XM919 IAM tactical munition is a disposable, lightweight, single shot, multi-target, and Fire from Enclosure (FFE) capable Shoulder Launched Munition (SLM). The XM919 IAM is for combat units at the squad level, employed by an individual Soldier. Throughout this document, the XM919 IAM tactical munition will be referred to as the XM919 IAM.

Offerors may be required to provide other than certified cost and pricing data in accordance with FAR 52.215-20 and 252.215-7010.
