Code System Media (CSM)

Abstract

The Minuteman CSM effort will develop software to support management of data flow and data products to keep the Minuteman III weapon system into operational mode. Current CSM processes utilize DC300 tape cartridges and 9-track tapes. Beginning in FY11, the National Security Agency (NSA) is no longer using DC300 tape cartridges and the shelf life expires in 2013 for the remaining 9-track tapes. The software will be modified to use CD-ROMs as the new media. Ensures capability through 2030 to load codes/software on MM ICBMs--critical to CY12 code change.
