MM III Baseline Support

Abstract

MM III Baseline Support program replaces or upgrades obsolete/unsupportable flight test unique equipment installed on the missile during flight test, used to test MM III systems on the ground, or located at test facilities to collect, process, and analyze test data. Flight test equipment supports test and evaluation of MM III capabilities, and MM III Operational Test Launches (OTLs) to determine ICBM force readiness, reliability and capability shortfalls. Efforts include development, qualification, integration and testing of replacement equipment such as LGM-30G Flight Test Telemetry and Termination System (FT3) and LGM-30G Higher Authority Command Test System (HACTS) 2.0. As other similar equipment is identified for replacement, it will be added to this program. MM III Baseline Support also provides for other MM III unique government costs, studies of system performance, contract closeout costs, cost trades and acquisition planning activities, up to and including proposal preparation, for future capabilities. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In FY 2022 $0.697M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY 2023 $0.708M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element.
