Payload Transporter Replacement (PTR)
Abstract
Designs and develops the capabilities necessary to replace the current Payload Transporter (PT) tractor and trailer, mitigating emerging threat technologies and methods. The PT emplaces, extracts, and transports the Minuteman III Reentry System (RS), Propulsion System Rocket Engine (PSRE), and Missile Guidance Set (MGS). The new PT design increases safety and security during transport activities and improves maintenance operations. In FY15, PTR funding was eliminated pending revalidation of the requirement through an ICBM Transportation Security Study due July 2014. PTR development will continue in FY14.
