Integrated Master Test Plan
Abstract
This activity funds C2BMC participation in BMDS flight and ground testing, wargames and exercises, and resources in accordance with the BMDS IMTP. Recurring accomplishments include: Test Execution - Assess BMDS interoperability, integration, and functionality in lab and distributed environments, leveraging a complex set of scenarios to test the limits of the C2BMC system. Participate in and analyze results of ground tests and flight tests in accordance with the BMDS IMTP. Support all phases of the MDA Ground Test Concept of Operations (CONOPS) and the MDA Flight Test CONOPS. Provide Flight Test Predictive Analysis support. Generate, test, and distribute federated model compatible scenarios for Ground Test and Flight Test Experimentation test support. Use BMDS C2BMC Model (BCM) to support exercise integration testing activities including test case and scenario checkout. - Utilize the Enterprise Sensors Laboratory (ESL) to plan, coordinate, and provide test operations to demonstrate prototype algorithms through flight tests and United States-launched targets of opportunity. The development plans for algorithm improvements focus on track and measurement level sensor data fusion and feature extraction to improve 3-D track formation utilizing a variety of space, airborne, and terrestrial-based sensors. Results from the tests and experiments are provided back to the algorithms development activity to enable algorithm refinement. - Continue LRDR node integration, testing, and training with new C2BMC Spiral 8.2-5 Homeland Defense baseline changes at the MDIOC. Retain Existing Sensor Data Interfaces and provide LRDR Data for Risk Reduction for GMD; Initial Hypersonic Tracking and Reporting; and Cyber Security Enhancements Risk Management Functions. - Utilize the C2BMC Experimentation Laboratory (X-Lab) to plan, coordinate, and provide test operations to demonstrate maturing C2BMC technologies and software builds within an integrated C2BMC environment through flight tests, ground tests and real-world targets of opportunity before incorporation into formal C2BMC spiral builds. The development plans for C2BMC improvements focus on the BMDS Post Intercept Assessment (PIA) capabilities, architecture improvements, and C2BMC algorithm improvements to mitigate development risk. Results from the tests and experiments are provided back to the C2BMC and X-Lab development activity. - Participate in wargames and exercises using current and future C2BMC architectures to support all requesting combatant commands, NATO partners, and Host Nations allowing warfighters to validate Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Techniques, Tactics, and Procedures (TTP) specific to all designated Areas of Operations (AOs) to include current and future C2BMC architectures. - Provide development and upgrades in the C2BMC Testbed (CTB) to support flight and ground tests. Continue Cyber Testing in the CTB to support continuous C2BMC spiral development. Continue C2BMC and NATO planning demonstrations and support to NATO live fire events. Provide Situational Awareness (SA) Node sustainment for the BMDS incremental development to support ongoing planning and cooperation in the development and enhancement of interoperability between U.S. BMD systems and the NATO BMD systems. Provide infrastructure, network, and troubleshooting support to C2BMC Command Center (CCC), to include the BMDS Network Operations and Security Center (BNOSC), System Test and Operations Center (STOC), C2BMC System Support Center (CSSC), BMDS Communications Network (BCN), the Distributed Training system (DTS) and Combined Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) Laboratories (OCL). Specific and/or unique accomplishments for each FY are as follows:
