Consumables - Short Range Ballistic Missiles (SRBM)
Abstract
Consumables include SRBM target hardware development and manufacturing. Target development includes non-recurring engineering, MBRVs, Countermeasures, and launch support equipment for Missile Defense System flight testing as required by the Missile Defense System IMTP. Target development provides air and ground launch capabilities to maximize flexibility in MDA test design. Development activities include requirements decomposition, design, modeling and simulation, qualification testing, characterization, missionization, and mission analysis. The Missile Defense System Targets Program Office manages target configuration, component interface specifications, range integration, reliability, mission assurance, and costs. The Missile Defense System Targets Program ensures target designs are producible, reliable, and affordable. Target manufacturing includes the build of targets and target components that are required to execute the Missile Defense System IMTP. Manufacturing includes government furnished equipment and new component acquisition, assembly, and integration. Also included are target characterization, quality and mission assurance, transportation, and logistics support. The Missile Defense System Targets Program delivers fully assembled and integrated targets to the Missile Defense System Test Program. Future revisions to the IMTP will likely affect target types and quantities noted in the Planned Accomplishments. Beginning in FY 2022, the Missile Defense System Targets Program began sequentially numbering SRBM T4 and MRBM T4 ship sets separately. Specific and/or unique planned accomplishments to each FY are as follows:
