Advanced Remote Sensor Technology (ARST)
Abstract
The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is conducting an enhanced discrimination technology demonstration program that will use a wide range of advanced remote sensor technologies and techniques. The goals for enhanced discrimination are to improve the probability of engagement success for stressing threats, expand the Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) battle space, and increase the ability to negate larger raid sizes. System modeling indicates geographically and spectrally-diverse advanced sensors will improve global persistent tracking and the ability to discriminate by up to an order of magnitude. These improvements increase all weapon systems performance for regional and homeland defense. The advanced remote sensor technology is applicable to space or very-high-altitude basing. Starting in FY 2014, content previously planned in the Advanced Remote Sensor Technology PE is captured in the Discrimination Sensor Technology PE (0603177C), Project MD95. This content includes maturing emerging advanced detectors, focal planes, and algorithms. MD40 Program-Wide Support (PWS) consists of essential non-headquarters management costs in support of the MDA functions and activities across the entire Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS).
