Missile Defeat Project

Abstract

The Missile Defeat Project counters the growing global advancement and proliferation of road-mobile ballistic missile threats. The Missile Defeat Project coordinates and integrates Department of Defense and Intelligence Community efforts to develop counter-threat capability. The FY 2020 request will continue investments toward modernization of Time Sensitive Targeting Defeat capabilities identified in the 2018 National Defense Strategy for: 1) command, control, communications, computers and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance; joint lethality in contested environments; and, missile defense efforts. In accordance with the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2017, the Missile Defeat Project transferred activities initiated under the Missile Defeat to other stakeholders starting in FY 2019. In order to carry out the important effort initiated by Missile Defeat, the FY 2020 request will continue to create advanced capability for the defeat of time sensitive targets. Activities will be coordinated with the Services, appropriate Agencies and the Combatant Commands to transition these developments into viable warfighting capabilities. The Department is reviewing options to re-title this program element or transfer the remaining resources in to another program element to continuee work on time sensitive targets.
