Multi-Object Kill Vehicle
Abstract
In order to address the evolving and expanding threat of ballistic missile attacks on the Homeland, MDA is developing a more capable ground-based interceptor with a MOKV that will be able to defeat complex future threats. The MOKV replaces a unitary kill vehicle (KV) on current GBIs with a payload containing multiple, smaller kill vehicles (KVs). The MOKV concept also allows for a potentially substantial reduction of the GBI inventory required to protect the homeland, as multiple GBIs with a unitary KV will no longer be required to address a target complex with multiple threats. Specific and/or unique accomplishments to each FY are as follows:
