Air, Missile and Maritime Defense Technology

The Air, Missile and Maritime Defense Technology is developing technology for defending the nation from missile threats. We develop and assess integrated systems for defense against missiles and other threats. Activities include investigating system architectures, developing advanced sensor and decision support systems, making field measurements, and assessing deployed system capabilities.

Expertise is in developing radar, electronic warfare, and system-of-systems technologies for future integrated air and missile defense systems. We design highly digitized phased array radars, equipped with advanced signal processing and electronic protection, for the next generation of land, shipboard, and airborne sensors.

We design highly digitized phased array radars, equipped with advanced signal processing and electronic protection, for the next generation of land, shipboard, and airborne sensors. Our staff help protect the nation's military platforms against missile threats by developing electronic attack technologies and techniques. We are also at the forefront of engagement and resource coordination research. We address all facets of new technology by developing system concepts, validating these concepts through modeling and simulation, designing hardware and software solutions for systems, and then developing prototypes that we field test.
