Intercontinental Ballistic Missile - Dem/Val
Abstract
The Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) Demonstration/Validation (Dem/Val) program ensures a responsive design and development engineering infrastructure to address emerging issues and technology insertion/technology application on legacy and future ICBM, and other common strategic deterrent mission areas to develop enhanced multi-use capabilities. The ICBM Dem/Val program will provide technology maturation and risk reduction activities to support Minuteman (MM) III sustainment, MM III to Ground Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD) transition, and future ICBM systems development. ICBM Dem/Val conducts advanced component development and prototyping to validate emerging strategic missile technologies and future upgrades to the ICBM. Efforts will identify methods to improve system performance, develop potential future Reentry Vehicle (RV) designs, mitigate evolving threats, reduce life cycle costs, develop/expand modeling/simulation and experimental platforms for weapon qualification activities, improve nuclear safety and surety, and ensure both viability and durability of strategic missile systems. The ICBM Dem/Val program will develop key enabling engineering tools for the ICBM mission to include Models Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), test software, and modernization of existing analytical tools. This program will leverage modular system, open architecture and agile software development to build key enabling engineering tools and future upgrades to ICBMs. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605831F or 0605833F. In FY 2021 0.000M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY 2022 0.000M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element. This effort is in Budget Activity 4, Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P), because efforts are necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative modes or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.

- Change Summary Explanation
- FY2021 funding reflects a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) adjustment of $1.144M and a incoming below-threshold reprograming of $3M. FY2022 funding reflects Congressional increase of $27M for ICBM mission enhancements developed under AFGSC's Innovation Hub to meet national strategic and operational needs. The FY2022 President's Budget did not reflect the FY2023 through FY2026 funding. Therefore, an explanation of the change between the two budget positions for FY2023 cannot be made in a relevant manner.
