Homeland Defense Radar - Hawaii (HDR-H)
Abstract
The Homeland Defense Radar-Hawaii (HDR-H) is a persistent discrimination radar that will provide additional capability to the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) to support the defense of Hawaii. HDR-H's primary mission is to provide autonomous acquisition and persistent precision tracking and discrimination to optimize the defensive capability of the BMDS and counter evolving threats. The HDR-H radar will be integrated into the BMDS through the C2BMC system and will feature a scalable and open system architecture to mitigate evolving threats. HDR-H's inherent capability will support additional mission areas, including but not limited to, Space Situational Awareness (SSA). The HDR-H radar is comprised of an equipment shelter housing a singled-faced array, a Mission Control Facility (MCF) which supports radar operations, a Radar Antenna Base, a Thermal Control System, and supporting facilities and infrastructure. The radar prime contractor will be responsible for building and fielding the radar equipment with associated Radar Antenna Base and Thermal Control, and the HDR-H Equipment Shelter (HES). Siting surveys will be conducted and EIS will be completed to determine the final recommended site. The HDR-H radar is anticipated to be operational in Hawaii in FY 2023.
