Aegis BMD
Abstract
Aegis BMD continues development of a Sea-Based BMD capability in support of the MDA's mission to protect the homeland, deployed forces, friends and allies from ballistic missile threats of all ranges and in all stages of flight. Systems Engineering & Integration performs requirements development, engineering analysis, capability integration, and performance verification for Aegis BMD development and BMDS integration. Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Technology Design and Insertion enables cross-baseline specification management and capability assessments to ensure consistent application of technical standards, processes, and procedures across the Aegis BMD program. Aegis BMD specific efforts include: systems engineering and architecture (process and execution); modeling and simulation (M&S); Verification and Validation (V&V) test and evaluation support; ship integration; quality; safety and mission assurance M&S. V&V efforts in this accomplishment are performed at the Aegis BMD element level, which feed into the overall BMDS system level. Aegis Baseline (BL) 5.4.0 (BMD 4.1.2) is a joint effort with the U.S. Navy developing a single Aegis Weapon System that merges BMD 4.1 and Aegis BL 5.3 computer programs within the current BMD 4.x weapon system architecture. Additional capabilities provide Anti-Air Warfare (AAW) improvements, SM-6 Dual I Extended Range AAW/Anti-Surface Warfare (ASUW), interoperability improvements, and updated BMD threat adaptation data. Aegis BL 5.4.1 (BMD 4.2) is a joint effort with the U.S. Navy that refurbishes existing ship AN/SPY-1 radar arrays with the installation of antenna Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs). This baseline will provide update to 21 Flight I/II Destroyers (DDG) with increased capability to maintain relevance through End of Service Life. Capabilities delivered include discrimination improvements, expanded threat set, increased stand-off range, expanded ship operating area, and war fighter requested improvements. Aegis BL 9 (BMD 5.x) aligns with U.S. Navy Aegis Baseline 9 Capability Packages (2020, 2021, 2022, and 2024) to provide expanded detection, track, and defeat capabilities of additional intermediate range threats and threats with increasingly complex engagement scenes, increased raid sizes, and enables the Weapon System to operate in challenging operational environments. Through a series of unique Capability Insertion Packages, BMD 5.x provides software updates to the original BMD 5.1 to incorporate emergent BMDS capabilities, War fighter improvements, and improved Weapon System performance. Aegis BL 10 (BMD 6.0) incorporates the solid state Air and Missile Defense Radar (AMDR), now designated SPY-6, for introduction on the first Flight III DDG. BMD 6.0 will provide deployed assets enhanced Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) capability, while enabling BMDS element utilization of SPY-6 data for remote engagement. Enhancements include significant improvements in IAMD planning, search, track, discrimination and force level (multi-asset) raid defense. BMD 6.0 will enable U.S. Navy ships to maintain greater stand-off range while increasing performance against complex threats. Aegis Underlay includes Aegis Weapon System and SM-3 Block IIA software modifications to existing systems to support a phased delivery of operational capability against expanded threat/mission space. Modeling & Simulation (M&S) Objective Simulation Framework (OSF) effort develops, maintains and deploys the framework hardware and software for use at element laboratories and Combatant Command (CCMD) locations to support IMTP events, BMDS capability delivery assessments, War fighter training, exercises, and wargames. M&S BMDS Simulations & Tools effort provides development and sustainment of digital products and the architecture framework, and delivery/maintenance of infrastructure for BMDS performance assessments. BMD System Assessment and Verification, Validation & Assessment (VV&A) includes activities to support BMDS Operational Capacity Baseline (OCB) delivery decisions and Technical Capability Declarations (TCDs), and anchor System modeling and simulation.
