Aegis BMD
Abstract
Sea-Based Weapon Systems 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 MDS integration. Aegis 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 MDS 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 5.1.3, BMD 5.1.4, BMD 5.1.5, BMD 5.1.6 Software Spiral development) aligns with U.S. Navy Aegis Baseline 9 Capability Packages 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 respectively. The software spirals provide enhanced detection, track, report, and defeat capabilities of additional intermediate range threats with increasingly complex engagement scenes and increased raid sizes. Through a series of unique Capability Insertion Packages, BMD 5.X capability spirals provides continuous software updates to the original BMD 5.1.0 architecture to incorporate emerging MDS capabilities, War fighter improvements, SM-3 software updates, and improved Weapon System performance necessary to pace the threat. Aegis BL 10 (BMD 6.0) incorporates the solid state Air and Missile Defense Radar (AMDR), now designated AN/SPY-6(v)1, for introduction on the first Flight III DDG. Aegis BL 10 (BMD 6.0) will provide deployed assets enhanced Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) capability, while enabling MDS 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. Aegis BL 10 (BMD 6.0) will enable U.S. Navy ships to maintain greater stand-off range while increasing performance against complex threats. Aegis Layered Homeland Defense 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. 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 Integrated Master Test Plan (IMTP) events, MDS capability delivery assessments, War fighter training, exercises, and wargames. M&S MDS Simulations & Tools effort provides development and sustainment of digital products and the architecture framework, and delivery/maintenance of infrastructure for MDS performance assessments. MDS System Assessment and Verification, Validation & Assessment (VV&A) includes activities to support MDS Operational Capacity Baseline (OCB) delivery decisions and Technical Capability Declarations (TCDs), and anchor System M&S.
