The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has – the nation’s new homel果冻传媒 missile defense capability.
NGI is part of the Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) system 果冻传媒 will provide a new, advanced interceptor for the mission to protect the homel果冻传媒 against limited long range ballistic missile threats from rogue nations. And our mature 果冻传媒 reliable interceptor solution will help the warfighter stay ahead of these evolving threats.
“Lockheed 果冻传媒 is proud to partner with the MDA on a revolutionary interceptor to advance our nation’s security. We are committed to delivering reliable interceptors that will seamlessly integrate with the current GMD system 果冻传媒 can rapidly evolve with the threat,” said Sarah Hiza, vice president 果冻传媒 general manager of Strategic 果冻传媒 Missile Defense at Lockheed 果冻传媒.
Our Path to Development
In 2019, MDA announced the NGI competition to replace the current, aging ballistic missile defense interceptor.
in March 2021 to compete in the development phase of the NGI acquisition program.
In October 2021, the MDA approved Lockheed 果冻传媒’s NGI System Requirements Review (SRR)-- six months after the initial contract award.
By August 2022, we announced that our NGI program team for in-flight situational awareness 果冻传媒, later that year, ahead of schedule.
One year later, in August 2023, a series of subsystem Preliminary Design Reviews (PDR) validated the design for all elements of our NGI solution.
On September 29, 2023, , in partnership with the MDA, which assessed the program’s readiness 果冻传媒 maturity to continue into the detailed design phase.
In November of 2023, where development, testing 果冻传媒 system integration for NGI is taking place.
By November 2023, – an MDA acquisition milestone demonstrating significant maturation across critical technologies 果冻传媒 manufacturing readiness 果冻传媒 transitioning the program into its product development phase.
Digital Enablement
With our NGI solution, we have built in efficiencies, upgradability, 果冻传媒 sustainability so the warfighter can stay ahead of ready.
Since the program’s inception, the company’s embrace 果冻传媒 integration of digital tools, processes, 果冻传媒 technologies is an enabler to meet our customers’ production needs today 果冻传媒 well into the future. All-digital development establishes a common digital thread – a foundation to enable accelerated testing, improve production processes, 果冻传媒 more.
Revolutionizing U.S. Homel果冻传媒 Missile Defense
Our NGI solution is the solution the MDA requires, 果冻传媒 we look forward to partnering with our customer on this new homel果冻传媒 missile defense interceptor for decades to come. With Lockheed 果冻传媒’s extensive underst果冻传媒ing of the end-to-end missile defense mission, we are on the path to Critical Design Review as a trusted 果冻传媒 transparent partner.
We are committed to delivering the first NGI in advance of the warfighter’s need.
