Long Range Discrim Radar (LRDR)
Abstract
This project provides for the development and initial fielding of a Long Range Discrimination Radar (LRDR) by 2020 leading to an Operational Capability Declaration in FY 2022. This provides an improved persistent midcourse BMDS discrimination capability in the Pacific sensor architecture. The LRDR will also increase the defensive capacity of the Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (GMD) interceptor inventory and address evolving threats. MDA's request includes funding for the design and development of the LRDR, delivery of spares for initial fielding, system engineering, software development, software Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V), hardware manufacturing, qualification testing, developmental testing support and Modeling and Simulation (M&S) efforts. M&S includes development of LRDR digital simulations and their integration into the BMDS, M&S architecture, and Verification, Validation, and Accreditation (VV&A) of LRDR models. The United States Air Force (USAF) will leverage the LRDR inherent capabilities to augment ancillary missions including Space Object Identification and Space Situational Awareness.
