Ground Based Strategic Deterrence (GBSD)

Abstract

Ground-Based Strategic Deterrence (GBSD) seeks to identify viable concepts and materiel solutions for a Minuteman III follow-on in support of the Air Force's strategic deterrence and global strike capabilities. Funding supports pre-Milestone A activities, to include an AoA and associated concept refinement activities of potential materiel solutions. This effort will explore materiel technology alternatives at the system and sub-system levels during the Materiel Solution Analysis Phase leading to a Milestone-A decision. This program is in Budget Activity 4, Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P), because efforts are necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative modes or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.
