Reagan Test Site (RTS) T&E Investments
Abstract
This Project funds improvement and modernization (I&M) for the Ronald Reagan Ballistic Missile Defense Test Site (RTS). Funds modernization of the radar, telemetry, optics, range safety, communications, command/control and other equipment essential to meet test and evaluation requirements of the Services and Department of Defense (DoD) agencies. Without modernization these instrumentation systems face obsolescence or degraded capability. The RTS instrumentation is required to support data collection for test & evaluation assessments and operational decisions for the Army; Navy; Air Force; United States Strategic Command (STRATCOM); Missile Defense Agency (MDA); Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA); National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA); and other customers. RTS, located in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, is a remote, secure activity of the Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB). Funding will enable RTS to continue to meet customer objectives and sustain the required instrumentation suite.
