This was the first Aegis BMD system's commitment against a ballistic missile between the two, and the first time that the system is a start capability uses in case the remote control so that the Aegis use BMD system for remote sensing to detect threats to recognize as soon as possible in flight.
Aegis BMD system has a missile standard real-time information via a remote sensor before they fired the SPY-1 radar detection of ballistic missiles on board.
"The team led by Lockheed Martin Aegis, has a system of anti-ship missile based on the U.S. approach to global missile defense development," said Lisa Callahan, vice president for maritime ballistic missile defense programs. "With this test, Aegis BMD has shown that it is to expand the battlefield and destroy ballistic missile threats early in his career than ever before."
The USS O'Kane (DDG-77) used the first generation of Aegis BMD to be configured so that the exercise conducted by the Missile Defense Agency, U. S. Navy to perform and Lockheed Martin. This configuration, the ability of ships to defend against short range ballistic missiles in the final phase of the flight adds, has been certified for operation by the Navy March 2008.
There are 25 Aegis BMD ships equipped with today - 21 U.S. Navy ships and four Japanese destroyers. Three other ships are scheduled to become the BMD-capable this year.
Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin is a global security company that employs about 132,000 people worldwide and is principally in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and maintenance of high-tech systems, which involved products and services. Company 2010, revenues from continuing operations $ 45.8 billion.

Another test of the SM-3 Black was successfully concluded yesterday evening 1A to the intersection of a target class IRBM:
The Missile Defense Agency (MDA), U.S. Navy sailors aboard the destroyer USS O'Kane Aegis (DDG 77), and the soldiers of the 94th Army Air and Missile Defense Command, the operation of the Air and Space Operations Center, Hickam 613 Air Force Base, Hawaii, has a successful flight test of the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) element of the Ballistic Missile Defense system in the nation, which is in the intersection target ballistic missile, which separates the Pacific Ocean. This test successfully demonstrated the ability to announced the first phase of the European Union Adaptive Phased approach (EPAA) by the President in September 2009.
At 02:52 EDT (18:52 April 15 hours Marshall Islands), an intermediate target ballistic missile was from the Reagan Test Site, Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands in the Republic, started about 2300 miles south-west of Hawaii. The object flew from the northeast to a large area of ocean in the Pacific Ocean. Run the following recipients, a move AN/TPY-2 transportable X-band radar, in Wake Iceland based detection and monitoring of the threat from rockets away. The radar transmits information about the path of the command, control, combat and communication services (C2BMC) system, which processes and sends data to remote destination on the USS O'Kane. The destroyers, which is west of Hawaii, used data to generate a fire control solution development and market introduction of the SM-3 Block IA missile launched about 11 minutes after the goal in life.
Since the purpose IRBM on his way to detect the fire and boat radar AN/SPY-1 acquired ballistic missile targets. The ship shots Aegis BMD system uplink target track information Missile SM-3 Block IA. The SM-3 is at a point in space by the fire control solution maneuvers known and published its kinetic warhead. The kinetic warhead acquired the target, offsetting in their own way, and the only force to a direct hit, destroying the threat of a "hit-to-kill" intercept.
During the test, the C2BMC system operated by soldiers of the 94th Army Air and Missile Defense Command will receive the data from all assets and provide situational awareness of the U.S. Pacific Command to take part, U.S. Northern Command and U.S. Strategic Command.
The demonstration of two surveillance satellites and space (STSS), followed by the MDA launched in 2009 to life, successfully acquired target missile and provides stereo "from cradle to grave" tracking of targets.
Today is the event that the flight test standard called Missile-15 (FTM-15) was the toughest test to date when he first Aegis BMD interception against a target version 3.6.1 was medium-range missiles (range 1864-3418 miles) and Aegis BMD 3.6.1 the first commitment period, based on data from remote monitoring. The possibility of radar data to remote part of a threat of ballistic missile use increases the battlefield and defend the area of the SM-3 missile.
Early signs that all components work as expected. The program will be in the next few months conducting a thorough assessment and evaluation of performance on telemetry and other data were obtained during the test.
FTM-15 Success is the intersection with 21 in 25 attempts for the Aegis BMD program since it began flight tests in 2002. For all parts of the 45th MBDS successful intercept in 58 flight tests hit to kill since 2001.
Aegis BMD is the marine component of the MDA Ballistic Missile Defense System and is designed to intercept and destroy threats to the short-and medium-range ballistic missiles. To manage the Navy and MDA in partnership with the U.S. Aegis BMD program.
This test can be essentially mimics the phase I of the adaptive progressive approach of the European Union in its final form - a sea-based SM-3 interceptor missiles Blk 1A MRBM class / IRBM with a key-based vision sensor (in this case TPY -2 ). The main element of Phase I has been used in the offshore component even with the planned deployment of the USS Monterey (CG 61) at the beginning of this year in BMD patrol. Please note that used during a patrol in BMD, Monterrey, but is still capable of multiple missions, which is a DMO, which demonstrates the flexibility of these sea-based mobile devices.
