Missile Interface Definition

Abstract

Activities under this contract fell under two broad areas within the Scope of Work. The first area, entitled 'Evaluation of Exoatmospheric Interceptor Development Efforts,' required assessment of the GBI Dem/Val and Phase 1 interceptor program to ensure that evolving interceptor subsystem concepts were commensurate with the midcourse strategic defense system performance objectives. In addition, SPARTA assessed GBI Dem/Val plans to ensure that system interface issues identified by other organizations were properly included in the Dem/Val test plans, The other major activity within the Scope of Work was entitled 'Interface Development for the Phase 1 Exoatmospheric Interceptor.' Under this area, SPARTA assessed the interoperability of each of the major components or exoatmospheric interceptor concepts (i.e., missile, support equipment, system interfaces) to recommend compromises and tradeoffs necessary to combine preferred components into tactical configurations.
