Ballistic Missile Defense Sensor Test

Abstract

The Missile Defense Agency executes a robust test program, including flight and ground tests supporting both strategic and regional Missile Defense System capabilities against medium- and long-range threats. The Sensors elements of the Missile Defense System IMTP are intended to demonstrate the integrated missile defense capabilities under development to ensure the capabilities delivered to the Warfighter are operationally effective, suitable, and survivable. The Sensors Test Program Element specifically includes the planning, execution, and analysis of flight and ground tests, as well as the associated infrastructure to provide data required for Missile Defense technical Capability Declarations. The Sensors Test program supports integration of radar improvements into the Missile Defense System, mid- and far-term Discrimination Improvements, and Operational Test and Evaluation of the theater/regional and strategic Missile Defense System architecture.
