Ground Based Midcourse Test
Abstract
Ground-based Midcourse Test consists of three accomplishment areas; Resources, Flight Test Execution, and Ground Test Execution. Resources consist of the support and framework required to successfully conduct both flight and ground testing. Flight Test Execution and Ground Test Execution accomplishments consist of the execution of the individual tests. Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) executes an enhanced test program that includes expanding our flight and ground test programs to demonstrate our Initial Homeland Defense and Enhanced Homeland Defense capabilities against long-range threats. The GMD elements of the BMDS Integrated Master Test Plan (IMTP) are intended to demonstrate the integrated missile defense capabilities under development and ensure the capabilities delivered to the Warfighter are operationally effective, suitable, and survivable.
