Abstract
Maritime Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Planning System (MIPS) is an automated air and missile defense planning tool that supports the Joint Force Maritime Component Commander at the operational level of war by automatically and optimally allocating and stationing ships in support of Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) or Anti-Air Warfare (AAW). MIPS contains United States Army Patriot and Terminal High Altitude Air Defense (THAAD) models to ensure synergistic allocation and positioning of maritime units in relation to other joint units, providing optimized mutual defense for selected defended assets against selected BMD and AAW threats. MIPS is currently developing significantly improved inorganic Ballistic Missile Defense planning capabilities through the incorporation of Long Range Surveillance and Training, Cued Engagement, and Launch on Tactical Digital Information Links (TADIL) planning functionality. In FY2015, MIPS will begin development to deliver an automated planning capability for Naval Integrated Fire Control-Counter Air (NIFC-CA) operations.
