M982 Excalibur

He served in World War II, and his vivid stories of how his unit was sometimes overmatched and outranged by the enemy made me realize that I could put my engineering talents to use to benefit the warfighter.

Kleinbach's first acquisition position was as an electrical engineer on the M982 Excalibur program, and he said the most appealing aspect of this work was the positive, motivated culture of the office.

Our teams were working through significant and concurrent development and test efforts, and we were able to quickly iterate designs to find and fix failures, he said.

My goal is to provide cutting-edge precision munitions to the warfighter, and I think our team is achieving that.
