  • Navy Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Program: Background and Issues for Congress
    Navy Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Program: Background and Issues for Congress Updated September 30, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL33745 SUMMARY RL33745 Navy Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) September 30, 2021 Program: Background and Issues for Congress Ronald O'Rourke The Aegis ballistic missile defense (BMD) program, which is carried out by the Missile Defense Specialist in Naval Affairs Agency (MDA) and the Navy, gives Navy Aegis cruisers and destroyers a capability for conducting BMD operations. BMD-capable Aegis ships operate in European waters to defend Europe from potential ballistic missile attacks from countries such as Iran, and in in the Western Pacific and the Persian Gulf to provide regional defense against potential ballistic missile attacks from countries such as North Korea and Iran. MDA’s FY2022 budget submission states that “by the end of FY 2022 there will be 48 total BMDS [BMD system] capable ships requiring maintenance support.” The Aegis BMD program is funded mostly through MDA’s budget. The Navy’s budget provides additional funding for BMD-related efforts. MDA’s proposed FY2021 budget requested a total of $1,647.9 million (i.e., about $1.6 billion) in procurement and research and development funding for Aegis BMD efforts, including funding for two Aegis Ashore sites in Poland and Romania. MDA’s budget also includes operations and maintenance (O&M) and military construction (MilCon) funding for the Aegis BMD program. Issues for Congress regarding the Aegis BMD program include the following: whether to approve, reject, or modify MDA’s annual procurement and research and development funding requests for the program; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the execution of Aegis BMD program efforts; what role, if any, the Aegis BMD program should play in defending the U.S.

Copyright © 2017 CNA Abstract This paper provides a brief overview of U.S. Navy policy, strategy, plans and operations. It discusses some basic fundamentals and the Navy’s three major operational activities: peacetime engagement, crisis response, and wartime combat. It concludes with a general discussion of U.S. naval forces. It was originally written as a contribution to an international conference on maritime strategy and security, and originally published as a chapter in a Routledge handbook in 2015. The author is a longtime contributor to, advisor on, and observer of US Navy strategy and policy, and the paper represents his personal but well-informed views. The paper was written while the Navy (and Marine Corps and Coast Guard) were revising their tri- service strategy document A Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower, finally signed and published in March 2015, and includes suggestions made by the author to the drafters during that time.

  • Overview of Platforms and Combat Systems
    W. G. Bath Overview of Platforms and Combat Systems William G. Bath ABSTRACT Air and missile defense is a complex process involving the coordinated operation of equipment and computer programs. The most effective defense generally is multiple layers of defense using different technologies in each layer such as long-range hard-kill, followed by hard-kill area defense, followed by both hard-kill and soft-kill (electronic warfare) self-defense. A combat system must merge, fuse, and de-conflict many sources of sensor data to produce a single usable track picture for decision-making. Throughout, sensors are controlled and sensor resource use is man- aged to meet the overall defense needs. As technical direction agent and technical adviser for many of the combat system elements, the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) performs the systems engineering, analysis, and experimentation that helps the Navy select the most combat system capability at an affordable cost. INTRODUCTION Most Navy warships have combat systems capable of in overall air and missile defense capability shown in air and missile defense. Those combat systems are well Figure 1. described by the “detect–control–engage” paradigm; Aegis destroyers and cruisers are the Navy’s most that is, the components of the combat system can be capable air defense units because of their long-range, notionally grouped as follows: multifunction phased-array radars; their inventory of • Detect components that find and track air and many different anti-air warfare, ballistic missile defense, missile targets and electronic warfare weapons; and their complex control processes for processing sensor data, making • Control components that identify the targets and engagement decisions, and controlling those weapons.

  • NG Today 2002 Facing
    We want to tell you about an extraordinary company: • One with exceptionally talented people and core competencies critical to meeting 21st century requirements for America’s defense and homeland security. • One that over the last decade has repositioned itself as the nation’s 2nd largest defense enterprise, with approximately 120,000 employees and anticipated 2003 revenues of $25 billion – $26 billion. • One that has transformed itself from an aircraft manufacturer into a leading provider of information- age warfighting systems used in all environments from beneath the sea to outer space. We want to tell you about Northrop Grumman Corporation. Northrop Grumman’s strategy since the early 1990s has been guided by our vision of future wars and conflicts. Following the end of the Cold War, we began to consider what technological advances might alter the ways militaries would fight in the twenty-first century. We anticipated that innovations in surveillance, computerized battle management and precision strike would bring a revolution in military affairs. We repositioned our company to support these changes and embarked on a program of acquisitions and internal growth that has created the new Northrop Grumman Corporation. Today, as the following overview of our operating sectors makes clear, Northrop Grumman delivers the products and services most prized by our military customers. Northrop Grumman is the premier provider of sensors and electronic warfare systems. We’re a major producer of manned and unmanned aircraft and other platforms and systems for surveillance, targeting and precision strike, as well as a leading systems integrator. Northrop Grumman is the world’s largest shipbuilder, with expertise in submarines and surface ships, both nuclear and non-nuclear.

  • Aegis: Newest Line of Navy Defense
    JAMES D. FLANAGAN and GEORGE W. LUKE AEGIS: NEWEST LINE OF NAVY DEFENSE TICONDEROGA (CG-47) is the first ship in a new class of U.S. Navy guided missile cruisers that will carry the AEGIS Weapon System, the most advanced air defense system in the world today. The ships are intended to provide the primary surface protection for our aircraft carrier battle groups well into the 21st century. In addition to CG-47, YORKTOWN (CG-48) is in construction, and CG-49 and CG-50 are contracted and will commence construction shortly. AEGIS cruisers are multi-mission ships and are highly effective in a variety of missions including antiair warfare, antisubmarine war­ fare, antis hip warfare, strike warfare including bombardment of shore positions, escort to military and merchant ship convoys, amphibious assault support, surveillance and trailing of hostile ships, blockage, and search and rescue at sea. INTRODUCTION The essence of the AEGIS Combat System is the The guided missile cruiser TICONDEROGA (CG-47) Mk 7 Weapon System - the AA W system - shown in (Fig. 1) is the first of a projected class of 24 U.S. Fig. 3. This system is composed of eight elements: Navy warships that will provide antiair warfare weapons control, fire control, and missile launching (AA W) defense for U.S. Navy Aircraft Carrier Battle systems; STANDARD Missiles; the AN/SPY-IA radar; Groups through the end of the 20th century and be­ an operational readiness test system; a command and yond. TICONDEROGA is armed with the AEGIS decision system; and a display system. The key to the Combat System, which possesses an unprecedented Weapon System's capability is the SPY-IA Radar AAW combat capability and will provide effective de­ System.
