The MDA has identified that the United States must improve the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) to defeat the evolving threat against the US and its allies. In response, the MDA is planning to add a multi-object deployment approach to the BMDS architecture placing multiple Redesigned Kill Vehicles (RKVs) on each interceptor. Systima Technologies, Inc. (Systima) will develop innovative solutions for restraining and deploying these payloads through adverse flight environments while minimizing size, weight, power, and induced loads. Systima has the unique experience and capabilities to develop Multi-object Payload Deployment concepts that will leverage our experience deploying munitions and MDA KVs to develop an integrated systems approach to the retention and deployment requirements.
