BMD Enabling Programs

Abstract

The Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) Enabling Programs provide critical products and processes needed to combine element missile defense systems into a single, integrated and layered BMDS to provide new defensive capabilities and evaluate existing capabilities against the emerging threats. Specifically, the Enabling Programs: - Define BMDS architectures and functional requirements, conduct Analyses of Alternatives (AoA) for the DoD, and provide engineering requirements, execution support, and pre- and post-mission analysis for BMD System tests - Provide validated models and simulations for BMD System assessment - Assess BMDS performance and deliver capabilities to the Warfighter - Provide multi-disciplinary security and intelligence support for BMDS acquisition, development, test, and deployment - Identify potential threats and vulnerabilities to MDA and the BMDS and develop and implement strategies to mitigate those risks - Assess architecture alternatives to address advanced threats and provide recommendations for future BMDS configurations to keep pace with evolving threats - Provide Information Management tools and products supporting the development of BMDS capabilities while safeguarding networks and critical program information - Provide MDA secure communication networks, IT systems, special purpose processing nodes, operations and monitoring centers, and disaster recovery and continuity of operations requirements - Evaluate quality, technical safeguards, and mission assurance effectiveness - Assess System ability to maintain integrity and superiority with advances in technology development This Program Element includes BMDS threat discrimination improvements, which will enhance BMDS effectiveness against the evolving adversary threat. The end result will be a BMDS architecture more capable of discriminating and destroying reentry vehicles with a higher degree of confidence, improving Warfighter shot doctrine, and more efficiently using interceptor inventory. BMDS threat discrimination improvements are funded from the Enabling (0603890C), Midcourse (0603882C), BMD Sensors (0603884C), BMD Command, Control, Battle Management and Communications (C2BMC) (0603896C), and Aegis BMD (0603892C) PEs.

• Source ID: 0603890C_4_0400_PB_2019
• Change Summary Explanation: The increase in FY 2019 from PB18 to PB19 supports emerging Department of Defense priorities, including capability enhancements to address USFK Joint Emergent Operational Need; establishing a continuous integration and agile ground testing capability; enhanced modeling and simulation in support of BMD System Assessment to give Warfighters confidence in BMDS performance; enhanced Verification, Validation, and Accreditation (VV&A) to provide confidence in BMDS modeling and simulation results; and the consolidation of cybersecurity investments to implement the Office of the Secretary of Defense four lines of effort and Risk Management Framework (RMF) activities across MDA programs. FY 2017 CONGRESSIONAL ADDS: +25.000 million is a Congressional add for Cybersecurity training and enhancements and cybersecurity investments for Secretary of Defense priority effort in the Cybersecurity Four Lines of Effort. FY 2017 MISSILE DEFEAT ENCHANCEMENTS REPROGRAMMING (FY17-26 PA): +$1.100 million to address emergency warfighting requirements in support of a Joint Emergent Operational Need. Additional details are available at a higher classification level. This is a base budget requirement. FY 2017 OTHER ADJUSTMENTS: +$9.985 million reflects MDA realignments to support acceleration of systems engineering efforts to address analysis of emerging BMD threats, filtering and tracking capabilities, and spaced-based architecture alternatives. FY 2018 MISSILE DEFEAT AND DEFENSE ENCHANCEMENT (MDDE) BUDGET AMENDMENT: +$16.200 million is required to address emergency warfighting requirements in support of USFK Joint Emergent Operational Need Statement (JEON). Additional details are available at a higher classification level. PB19 reflects approved out year Missile Defeat and Defense Enhancement (MDDE) tails.
