Capability Development Program

Abstract

The Capability Development Program provides engineering support to enable compliance with BMD System Specification threat capabilities and addresses advanced threats prevalent in 2017 and beyond. This task includes the redesign of select components to address obsolescence and improve reliability of the system. This task initiates electronic protection and objective debris mitigation development efforts to reduce or eliminate the effect of corporate clutter and electronic attack on sensors. This effort develops the Post Intercept Assessment (PIA) capability for the SBX and UEWRs. It develops, designs and tests sensor mid-term discrimination improvements for X-Band radars, to include SBX threat discrimination improvements. It also performs object classification performance updates to UEWR radars. This effort funds participation in far-term discrimination improvement threat model specifications and develops discrimination and countermeasure mitigation capability development. Additional software development activities include support to THAAD Launch on Remote (LoR) capability and X86 performance optimization to enhance processing speed. Specific and/or unique accomplishments to each FY are as follows:
