SM-3 Block IIA Co-Development
Abstract
The Scope of Work of the SCD project is defined in three phases: Phase I took the program through System Design Review (SDR) in FY 2009. Aegis BMD executed risk reduction efforts for the Propulsion, Nosecone, Seeker, Divert Attitude Control System (DACS) development efforts, and test plans. Phase I Included requirements definition for the SM-3 Block IIA. Phase II encompassed the work from SDR through the Critical Design Review (CDR) in FY 2014. Aegis BMD refined requirements and defined the performance allocation and component configuration for the development of the SM-3 Block IIA. The U.S. and Japan designed, fabricated, tested, and evaluated the SM-3 Block IIA sections per the agreed work-share agreement. Phase III extends from CDR to the completion of the SCD flight test program as defined in the Agreement. This phase defines developmental cost share agreements between the United States and the Government of Japan, completes component engineering and integration, executes cooperative flight tests, and continues discussions on production and maintenance options. Phase III is planned to complete in FY 2018. The SCD project will: - Develop and integrate components for the SM-3 Block IIA into an All Up Round (AUR). Japan's work share includes 21 inch 2nd and 3rd stage components and the 21 inch nosecone. The U.S. work share includes the advanced kinetic warhead, advanced seeker, large diameter divert and attitude control system, and lightweight Vertical Launch System (VLS) canister. - Integrate the SM-3 Block IIA VLS with Aegis Ship Systems.
