Hypersonic Defense
Abstract
The Hypersonic Defense effort will develop and demonstrate advanced technologies for future capabilities to counter hypersonic threats. The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) will conduct systems engineering activities and technology maturation to develop Missile Defense System architectures for future capabilities to defeat advanced threats. Efforts include kill chain and component allocations for requirements development, performance analysis, integration planning, and ground/flight test planning & assessment for near term and far term architectures. MDA will continue operationalization and integration of the initial hypersonic tracking capability developed under U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) Joint Emergent Operational Need (JEON) PC-0015 into the C2BMC program of record, Spiral 8.2-5. MDA plans to leverage the lessons learned and analysis from this capability development for the design and development of additional sensors for potential advanced threat applications. In addition, MDA will begin integrating these sensors into C2BMC and continue to enhance advanced threat ground processing to leverage data from these new sensors. To address the weapon technology required to defeat the hypersonic threat, MDA will focus on the maturation of hypersonic defense component advancements, and the development of weapon concepts through competitive development efforts with industry. MDA will assess those concepts and identify technology component risk reduction efforts for cost, risk, and performance, and refine requirements to inform future development efforts. The Agency will also enhance analysis tools to assess concept designs and provide input to the requirements process.
