Land Based SM-3 (LBSM3)
Abstract
This program supports development of a Land-Based Standard Missile-3 (LBSM3) capability, hereafter referred to as Aegis Ashore. On 17 September 2009, the President announced an overarching plan to provide regional missile defense to U.S. deployed forces, allies and partners in Europe called the European Phased Adaptive Approach (EPAA). The EPAA policy specifically defines a timeline to deploy a mix of afloat and land-based Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) capabilities. Aegis Ashore represents one of these land-based capabilities. The U.S. can also build on current efforts to pursue Phased Adaptive Approaches (PAAs) in the Asia Pacific and the Middle East regions. The PAA tailors U.S. BMD capabilities to specific theater needs enhancing integrated regional missile defenses to protect defended assets against medium, intermediate, and ultimately intercontinental range ballistic missiles. Aegis Ashore is a key component of EPAA Phases II (Romania) and III (Poland) and provides Aegis BMD capability against short to intermediate range ballistic missiles in an ashore configuration. Aegis Ashore provides sophisticated engagement strategies and can adapt to threat updates while also being deployed/redeployed worldwide where needed to provide persistent coverage for the Geographic Combatant Commanders. Aegis Ashore re-hosts the required BMD components of a US Navy Destroyer, including: SPY-1 Radio Direction and Ranging (Radar); Vertical Launch System (VLS), Computing Infrastructure; Command Control; Communications; Computers and Intelligence (C4I) Systems; and Operator Consoles. This program element will continue to modernize, develop, and test Aegis Ashore capability improvements at Aegis Ashore Missile Defense Test Complex (AAMDTC) in Hawaii for implementation at operational sites.
