Support Equipment

Abstract

The Support Equipment program designs, develops, and tests replacement of obsolete/non-serviceable weapon system support and flight test equipment. The efforts include design, development, and testing of support equipment such as Reentry Field Support Equipment (RFSE), Code System Media (CSM), Payload Transporter Replacement (PTR), Higher Authority Command/Rapid Message Processing Element (HAC/RMPE) Message Generator, Strategic Targeting Application Computer System (STACS), and Transporter Erector Replacement Program (TERP). In FY15, efforts listed above in PE 0604851F, Intercontinental Ballistic Missile - EMD, Project 655037, Support Equipment were included in PE 0101213F, Minuteman Squadrons, Project 672985, MM Support Equip. Efforts also include the design, development, and testing of replacement flight test equipment necessary to conduct Operational Test Launches (OTLs) and ICBM Fuze Modernization flight tests such as the Instrumentation Wafer Replacement Program (IWRP) and the Signal Conditioner Monitor (SCM) replacement program. OTLs are required by USSTRATCOM and the Department of Energy to determine continuing reliability and effectiveness of the ICBM weapon system. In FY 2015, IWRP and SCM efforts previously included in PE 0604851F, Intercontinental Ballistic Missile - EMD, Project 655037, Support Equipment were combined into one program and included in PE 0101213F, Minuteman Squadrons, Project 672984, MM III Baseline Support as the Instrumentation Wafer Replacement Program.
