Missile Defense Battlelab

Abstract

Project TR5 funds the Strategic Missile Defense (SMD) Force Development activities of the United States Army Space and Missile Defense Command (USASMDC) Space and Missile Defense Center of Excellence (SMDCoE). The SMDCoE is the warfighting function lead and Department of the Army force modernization proponent to develop the associated operational prototyping, experimentation, operational analysis, and modeling and simulation in support of missile defense capabilities for current and future Forces. The SMDCoE SMD Force Development workforce supports the research and doctrine development from one of the SMDCoE principal locations in Huntsville, AL; Colorado Springs, CO; and Joint Base Langley-Eustis. As the Army proponent for SMD, USASMDC is responsible for developing warfighting concepts, conducting warfighting experiments to validate those concepts, identifying capabilities needed to implement the validated concepts, and developing Doctrine, Organizations, Training, Material, Leadership & Education, Personnel, Facilities and Policy (DOTMLPF-P) solutions to develop future SMD capabilities. As the Army integrator for SMD, USASMDC is responsible for reviewing programs managed by the Army, other Services, Defense agencies and National agencies to ensure that they are correctly synchronized and will ultimately provide the capabilities required by USSTRATCOM and USSPACECOM to execute their SMD responsibilities.
