Time Sensitive Targeting Defeat (TSTD)
Abstract
Enabling a kill chain against a near peer competitor to maintain persistence on time sensitive targets present challenges. Time Sensitive Target Defeat (TSTD) leverages the recommendations of Special Program Missile Defeat (SPMD) JUKEBOX 18 by establishing an Integrated Joint Combined Arms Demonstration Campaign to address the challenging mission and national security needs for countering time sensitive targeting. The Demonstration Campaign is a multi-year initiative to integrating a multi-domain concept to address the critical needs for countering time sensitive targets. By forging a coalition with external and allied partners (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom), the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (USD(R&E)) will execute a live demonstration of time critical targeting to improve tactics, techniques, and procedures while improving the operational planning and effectiveness of the find, fix, and kill chains of future Joint Warfighting Concepts. TSTD will establish the foundation for resolving challenges with future weapon systems and command and control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR).
