AEGIS Ashore
Abstract
Deployed sites, referred to as an Aegis Ashore Missile Defense System Complex (AAMDSC), will be able to be modified to support future computer program and missile variants in accordance with the European Phased Adaptive Approach (EPAA) and will be modernized in pace with Navy's destroyer modernization plan. . The initial AAMDSC will be deployed to Romania in 2015 and will employ Advanced Capability Build 12 (ACB 12)/Aegis BMD 5.0 CU (Capabilities Upgrade) and SM-3 Block IB. A second AAMDSC will be deployed to Poland in FY 2018 in accordance with the EPAA. This site will provide an Aegis Ashore exoatmospheric defense against short to medium and intermediate range ballistic missile threats in the later stages of flight. If the threat dictates, additional systems could be purchased and deployed globally to support Geographic Combatant Commanders. The deployed sites will be capable of being upgraded to address current and future ballistic missile threats. The Aegis Ashore Radar Deckhouse has been fabricated, erected and used to test the Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF) equipment at the Lockheed Martin Moorestown, NJ campus. The associated foundation and utilities at Moorestown were funded by research, development, test and evaluation (RDT&E) under the authority of 10 USC 2353. The PMRF equipment testing was completed in the New Jersey (NJ) Deckhouse, the PMRF equipment was shipped to PMRF, where it has been installed and integrated into an identical deckhouse located at the PMRF. The Aegis Ashore Deckhouse at NJ will be subsequently used for Romania. Research and Development efforts will include required modifications to adapt the Aegis Weapon System for land based use and modernization in pace with Navy's destroyer modernization plan. In support of EPAA Phase III, Aegis Ashore will integrate the Aegis BMD 5.1 and Standard Missile (SM-3) Block IIA capabilities into the Aegis Ashore platforms.
