Industry:Military
The guiding agreement between the BMDAE and the SAEs covering the broad objectives, funding, and expectations of each Service with respect to a specific BMDOfunded activity.
Industry:Military
The sensor for the NMD system. An X-band, ground-based, phased array radar capable of detecting, tracking, and providing discrimination information to a ground-based interceptor.
Industry:Military
A system using electromagnetic transmissions to which equipment carried by friendly forces automatically responds, fro example by emitting pulses, thereby distinguishing themselves from enemy forces.
Industry:Military
The systematic observation of aerospace for the purpose of detecting, tracking, and characterizing objects, events, and phenomena associated with satellites and in-flight missiles, both friendly and enemy.
Industry:Military

Industry:Military
The method of evaluating the protection afforded a given operation. It is composed of multiple functional outlines that identify possible weaknesses or inefficiencies of an operation that could, if exploited, degrade operational effectiveness.
Industry:Military
The production of a system in limited quantity to provide articles for operational test and evaluation, to establish an initial production base, and to permit an orderly increase in the production rate sufficient to lead to full-rate production upon successful completion of operational testing.
Industry:Military
States all necessary requirements in terms of performance. Essential physical constraints are included. Type B specifications state requirements for the development of items other than systems. They specify all of the required item functional characteristics and the tests required to demonstrate achievement of those characteristics.
Industry:Military
Any electromagnetic disturbance that interrupts, obstructs, or otherwise degrades or limits the effective performance of electronics/electrical equipment. It can be induced intentionally, as in some forms of electronic warfare, or unintentionally, as a result of spurious emissions and responses, intermodulation products, and the like.
