Hypersonic and Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor (HBTSS)
Abstract
HBTSS is a space-based missile tracking sensor/system program to address Warfighter requirements. The goal of this effort is to develop prototype space sensors to: -Detect and track hypersonic threats as well as boosting conventional ballistic missiles in their boost phase of flight -Support MW/MD mission -Support other missions, as capable -Leverage inherent multi-domain capabilities to provide as-capable support to the OPIR Enterprise Recurring activities include: - Validate and Characterize HBTSS Performance - Complete early orbit test activities and continue on-orbit testing - Conduct daily on-orbit satellite operations - Support the MDA test events - Support test events associated with other organizations - Develop and implement Ground and SV software updates - Conduct Satellite and Ground Segment Sustainment - Conduct HBTSS program management, oversight, and mission support Specific and/or unique accomplishments to each FY are as follows:
