Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense 6.x Development
Abstract
U.S. Navy is developing the Advance Capability Build (ACB) 20 Combat System (CS) and the Air and Missile Defense Radar (AMDR), now designated SPY-6, for introduction on the first DDG Flight III. BMD 6.x will integrate BMD capability with the ACB 20 CS, to include new SPY-6 requirements; this will enable BMDS element utilization of AMDR data for remote engagements and supplement deployed assets with simultaneous multi-mission capabilities (e.g. IAMD). It will include updates for advanced planning; search, track, and discrimination; and kill assessments. SPY-6 will support a force-level (multi-asset) approach to raid defense and enable Navy ships greater stand-off range from threat environments. BMD 6.x will build upon B/L 9 Capabilities (e.g. BMD 5.1) as point of departure. BMD 6.x will also serve as the path forward to achieve BMDS Increment 6 threats, Electro Optical (EO/IR) Integration for remote engagements and increased raid capacity.
