Ballistic Missile Defense Midcourse Defense Segment Test
Abstract
Missile Defense Midcourse Defense Segment Test provides flight, ground, and cyber testing of Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (GMD) hardware and software to demonstrate an integrated GMD capability to counter the allocated threats. The GMD hardware and software is tested in an integrated environment with Missile Defense System Sensors; Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications; Warfighters; and national collection assets to assess and demonstrate the ability to defend the United States against ballistic missiles. Primary activities include GMD flight test execution, ground test execution, cyber test execution, test resources, and program operations. GMD flight tests provide the opportunity to test actual hardware and software and to demonstrate Missile Defense System interoperability under operationally realistic conditions. GMD participates in integrated Missile Defense System ground tests executed in both the Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) lab environment and with deployed operational assets providing integrated performance data supporting GMD hardware and software fielding decisions. GMD conducts system level cyber tests and participates in integrated Missile Defense System level cyber tests executed both in the HWIL lab environment and using operational assets providing performance data supporting cyber, operational resilience, and system survivability assessments. GMD test resources provides the infrastructure and laboratories to support the GMD test program as well as day-to-day operations of the GMD test program to include support for test planning, execution, and post-event reconstruction. Program operations provides for technical and business management support of the GMD test program.
