MTMD-Maritime Theater Missile Defense Forum
Abstract
This project funds participation in the Maritime Theater Missile Defense (MTMD) forum to promote interoperability with participating coalition nations. This project funds participation in the Modeling and Simulation (M&S), Battle Management, Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (BMC4I), and Coalition Distributed Engineering Plant (CDEP) working groups. MTMD forum provides protection against the proliferation of short, medium and long-range Ballistic Missile (BM) and Advanced Anti-Ship Cruise Missile (ASCM) threats through the creation of an interoperable sea-based defense capability among coalition nations. Provide protection across the full spectrum of these threats and utilize existing interoperable sea-based systems to protect against current threats while progressively improving and developing systems and system-of- systems to enable evolving threats to be effectively countered. MTMD supports these eight working groups: (1) Battle Management Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (BMC4I) activities define and develop architectures. (2) Modeling & Simulation (M&S) performs legacy and future systems simulation testing. (3) Coalition Distributed Engineering Plant (CDEP) performs Hardware-in-the-Loop Testing. (4) Open Architecture (OA) develops Interface Standards and Data Models. (5) Test Planning and Execution (TPEX) develops Test Plans and oversees exercise and post event data analysis. (6) Develops the Forum CONOPS and identifies the operational constraints and tactical constructs surrounding MTMD activities. (7) Coalition Supersonic Sea-Skimming Targets (CSSST) evaluating the conversion of excess TERRIER Missiles into low cost targets. (8) Next Generation Infrared Search and Track (IRST) is evaluating the technologies of the participating nations to develop passive staring IRST sensor system.
