Abstract
The MM Ground and Comm Equipment program replaces obsolete/unsupportable ground-based weapon system equipment located at Launch Control Centers (LCCs) and Launch Facilities (LFs) necessary to continue MM III operations through 2030. Current efforts include development, qualification, integration, and testing of replacement equipment such as the LGM-30G Air Launch Control System Replacement (ALCS), LGM-30G Automatic Switching Unit (ASU), LGM-30G Fast Rising B-Plug Phase II (FRBP II), LGM-30G Launch Control Center Break-In-Kit (LCCB), LGM-30G Launch Control Center Block Upgrade (LCCBU), and LGM-30G Remote Visual Assessment Phase II (RVA II). MM III Baseline Support program replaces or upgrades obsolete/unsupportable flight test unique equipment installed on the missile during flight test, used to test MM III systems on the ground, or located at test facilities to collect, process, and analyze test data. Flight test equipment supports test and evaluation of newly developed or modified MM III capabilities and conduct of MM III Operational Test Launches (OTLs) to determine ICBM force readiness, reliability and capability shortfalls. Efforts include development, qualification, integration and testing of replacement equipment such as LGM-30G Cadmium Replacement Support Equipment Program (CaDRP), LGM-30G Flight Test Telemetry and Termination System (FT3), LGM-30G Ground Test Upgrade (GTU), and LGM-30G Squadron Data Simulator (SDS). As other similar equipment is identified for replacement, it will be added to this program. MM III Baseline Support also provides for other MM III unique government costs, studies of system performance, contract closeout costs, cost trades and acquisition planning activities, up to and including proposal preparation, for future capabilities. MM Support Equipment program designs, develops, and tests replacement of obsolete/non-serviceable weapon system support equipment. Current efforts include design, development, and testing of support equipment such as LGM-30G Alignment Set Test Set (ASTS), LGM-30G Control Monitor Procedure Trainer Upgrade (CMPT), LGM-30G Code System Media (CSM), LGM-30G G6B4 Build Equipment Replacement (G6B4 BER), LGM-30G Performance Assessment Data System Communications Equipment Interface Unit (PADS CEIU), LGM-30G Pendulous Integrating Gyroscopic Accelerometer Build Equipment Replacement (PIGA BER), LGM-30G Payload Transporter Replacement (PTR), LGM-30G Reentry Field Support Equipment (RFSE), LGM-30G Reentry Support Equipment Replacement Program (RSERP), LGM-30G Strategic Targeting and Applications Computer System (STACS), and LGM-30G Transporter Erector Replacement Program (TERP). As other similar equipment is identified for replacement, it will be added to this program. MM Crypto Mods executes USSTRATCOM, Air Force Global Strike Command, and Nuclear Weapon Safety Center requirements by implementing the KS-60 capabilities in the LGM-30G ICBM Cryptography Upgrade II (ICU II) of remote key/code change and irreversible transformations mandated in the approved Capabilities Development Document (dated 4 Jan 05) and addresses Nuclear Weapon System Safety Group Operational Safety Review requirements 98-2, 00-1 and 02-2. As other similar equipment is identified for replacement, it will be added to this program. MM Operational Equipment program efforts identify viable concepts and material solutions in support of the Air Force's Ground Based Strategic Deterrent. Funding supports design, development, test, integration and replacement of weapon system equipment including flight systems; Nuclear Command, Control and Communications (NC3); launch and control facilities; and Security/Ground Equipment upgrades. Efforts within the MM Operational Equipment program will ensure MM III operations through 2030 as well as support future Ground Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD) requirements. Guidance Modernization Program (GMP) and Solid Rocket Motor Modernization (SRMM) were transferred into PE 0605230F, Ground Based Strategic Deterrent, Project 641025. As other similar equipment is identified for replacement, it will be added to this program. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development, because this budget activity includes developmental efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal years.

- Change Summary Explanation
- FY 2015 funding reflects $22.274M reprogrammed to higher Air Force priorities, and $2.994M realigned to accelerate Squadron Data Simulator ($1.763M) and Alignment Set Test Station ($1.231M) New Starts into FY 2015. FY 2016 funding reflects a Congressional Directed Reduction for Project 672983, MM Ground and Comm Equipment, for the ALCS-R (-$12.200M). FY 2017 funding reflects an increase for Project 672985, MM Support Equipment, for the G6B4 BER, PIGA BER and CMPT new start programs (+$3.453M); a decrease for Project 672984, MM Baseline Support, for under-execution (-$3.00M); a decrease for Project 672983, MM Ground and Comm Equipment, for under-execution (-$9.00M); and a decrease across all projects for inflation adjustments (-$1.723M).
