Ground Based Counter-Man Portable Air Defense Systems
Abstract
Ground based counter ManPADS concepts and systems that provide area protection in the vicinity of military airports, expeditionary airfields, or other high value locations. A second complete distributed ground based missile warning system will be built and evaluated at a major urban airport to collect clutter data and verify performance enhancements developed in FY 2009. This missile warning system is being initially integrated with aircraft based countermeasures systems. Potentially viable ground based countermeasures concepts will be evaluated and tested to assess developmental risk. Subsequent efforts will assess integration of ground based missile warning/tracking systems with future ManPADS countermeasures systems.
