Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) 5.x Development
Abstract
Aegis BMD 5.1 builds upon BMD 5.0 CU and will further expand the threat set to include those threats required for EPAA Phase III through the introduction of an Engage on Remote (EoR) capability and the integration of the SM-3 Block IIA missile. An EoR engagement allows the use of active and passive off board sensor information to launch and guide the SM-3 Block IIA missile to final intercept. The increased kinematic envelope of the SM-3 Block IIA when combined with EoR will expand the battlespace and increase the threat set engaged over previous baselines. BMD 5.1 was baselined with the Developmental Baseline Review (DBR) held with the MDA on April 14, 2014 (per DDM signed 19 June 2014).
