Supporting The Current Fight - Globally • Ground-based Midcourse Defense • Army space expertise (SSEs, ARSSTs, CETs, Space Cadre) • Joint Blue Force Situational Awareness • Enhanced SATCOM (RSSCs, 53rd Signal Bn) • In-theater missile early warning (JTAGS) • On-site spectral imagery (ARSSTs, CETs) • 24/7 reach back to the JSpOC, NGA and other national assets Examples: Launch of ballistic missiles by North Korea Space Situational Awareness (USAKA/RTS) NCR IADS and HACMD missions Providing operationally responsive, tactically relevant capabilities

  3. Addressing Tomorrow’s Threats - Today! • Ground-based Midcourse Defense • Increased interceptor inventory • Greater robustness through sensor redundancy • Balancing development with operational capability (CTO) • Increasing IMD exercise participation & support • Expanding Army space presence • RDT&E initiatives • Directed Energy • Multiple Kill Vehicle (MKV) • Modernization of test facilities (RTS, HELSTF) Building Capabilities Where None Existed Before
