Space And Missile Defense Integration
Abstract
This Program Element (PE) funds the Force Development activities of the United States Army Space and Missile Defense Command (USASMDC) Space and Missile Defense Center of Excellence (SMDCoE). The SMDCoE is the warfighting function lead and Department of the Army force modernization proponent for integration of current and future Space and High Altitude (SHA) systems to enable Army forces on the battlefield. The SMDCoE workforce supports the research and doctrine development from one of the SMDCoE principle locations in Huntsville, AL; Colorado Springs, CO; and Joint Base Langley-Eustis. As the Army proponent for SHA, the SMDCoE is responsible for developing warfighting concepts, identifying and validating needed capabilities, conducting warfighting experiments, and developing Doctrine, Organizations, Training, Material, Leadership & Education, Personnel, Facilities and Policy (DOTMLPF-P) solutions for the Army to leverage the SHA domains in support of Army operations. The SMDCoE focuses on providing solutions for capability gaps of land domain forces in a multi-domain battle environment in two ways: First, by leveraging the benefits of the SHA domains to enable decentralized land force operations in support of the Army's mission command philosophy; and second by delivering synchronized capabilities from, through and into the space domain in direct support of land domain forces. Effective integration of SHA capabilities enable the application of strategic land power and execution of Multi-Domain Operations (MDO). Additionally, SHA capabilities anchor the Army's ability to penetrate and disintegrate enemy anti-access and area denial (A2AD) systems and exploit the resultant freedom of maneuver to achieve strategic objectives and force a return to competition on favorable terms. Under the direction of an experienced member of the Senior Executive Service (SES), the SMDCoE receives guidance from the USASMDC Commanding General and works in close coordination with the Army Combined Arms Center, Army Futures Command, the United States Strategic Command, the United States Space Command the Missile Defense Agency.
