Increased Affordability of BMD Systems Through Distributed Hardware-In-The-Loop During Development,
Abstract
There have been numerous ideas and innovations designed to enhance the affordability of Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) systems developed in recent years. These innovations include increased use of prototype hardware in the early stages of system development to gain user feedback, perform early evaluations and to provide contingency deployment options. A second innovation is the formulation of capabilities to link various modular types of system simulations and environmental models together to create virtual worlds in which these highly interactive systems can operate. An interesting approach having great potential for yielding more affordable BMD systems combines these two approaches.
