Aegis BMD Development Support

Abstract

Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD), in accordance with negotiated agreements between the United States Navy and the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has identified and segregated funding for Developmental Support of Aegis BMD specific elements resident aboard Aegis capable Navy ships. Computer Program Support, consists of, but is not limited to, reviews of Technical Observation Reports (TORs) that are generated by ship crews during exercises or deployments, determination of root causes and preparation of Computer Program Change Request (CPCR) to correct TORs, updates to the in-service computer program to apply, test and certify multiple CPCRs, and tests installation of Aegis Weapon System (AN/SPY-radar/Fire Control Section (FCS)) alignment updates as required. Aegis BMD provides support to Annual Integration Events (AIEs) to ensure any updated Aegis Combat System (ACS) computer programs do not degrade BMD equipped ships and provides distance and technical support for BMD equipped ships. Additionally, Aegis BMD continues to analyze the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) elements to ensure that any and all interoperability impacts are captured and resolved to eliminate any impact to the warfighter. Aegis continues to work with Program Executive Office (PEO) Integrated Warfare Systems (IWS) and PEO Command, Control, Communications, Computers, & Intelligence (C4I), Aegis' Navy counterparts, in order to maintain common C4I top level requirements for all Aegis BMD Baselines.
