Multi Object Kill Vehicle
Abstract
The MOKV program will enhance the Missile Defense System (MDS) Homeland Defense Interceptor performance to enable the Warfighter to counter more numerous and complex threats to the Homeland by enabling engagement of multiple objects from a single interceptor. The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is developing the concepts for a MOKV based on a modular, open systems architecture designed to common interfaces and standards, making upgrades easier and broadening MDA's vendor and supplier base. The MOKV will rely on a MDS architecture that balances performance across the Sensors, Command, Control, Battle Management and Communications (C2BMC), and GMD elements. Analyses show that having multiple kill vehicles on each interceptor can dramatically improve the performance of the system, significantly reduce the burden on interceptor inventory, and reduce cost to defend the Homeland.
