RUSI Missile Defence Conference March 25, 2015

London

Doug Graham Vice President, Missile Systems & Advanced Programs, Lockheed Martin

• Adversaries are continuing to develop and field ballistic missile capabilities

– Also incorporating qualitative improvements designed to stress ballistic missile defense system

performance

• United States and key allies are investing in BMD system development and fielding to address this growing threat

• New, more robust capabilities needed to stay ahead of threat developments

• In production

– 2000+ Missiles & 300 Launcher Modification Kits delivered

• PAC-3 Missile Segment Enhancement (MSE) production underway. First Unit Equipped scheduled for September 2015

• MSE Procurement for Foreign Customers approved by the Tri Services Committee

Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) Update

• 1st operational unit deployed to Guam

• 7th Battery added to U.S. THAAD program

– THAAD Battery #5 activated in 2015

– New Equipment Training begins in 2015

4

• U.S. Army THAAD Institutional Training Base operational in 2015

• Mission success on last 13 Flight Tests, with 11 for 11 Intercepts

– Two flight tests planned in 2015

• Demand for THAAD continues to grow

– U.S. Warfighter demand is driving a requirement for 9 THAAD Batteries

– Significant International interest in Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and now Europe

THAAD is tested, in production, operationally deployed and growing to

meet warfighter requirements around the globe

THAAD Extended Range (ER) What Is It?

• Industry concept for THAAD capability evolution

• Two-stage interceptor for expanded battlespace

• Flexible 2nd stage, paces advancing threats

• Designed to integrate with existing THAAD Battery

Current Status

• ADM C.D. Haney, Commander of US Strategic Command, cited THAAD ER as a “funding priority program” to address the evolving

THAAD ER as a “funding priority program” to address the evolving threat in a February 26 Congressional Hearing

• MDA Budget request in FY 2016 includes THAAD Follow-On:

– $13.5M for risk reduction, concept maturation, threat evaluation

THAAD ER Quarter Scale Model

THAAD ERKey Benefits

• Contain and defeat non-ballistic threats

• Underlay for Homeland Defense (GMD)

• Extended reach for early/multiple shots

• Extends mass raid capability

• No soldier footprint increase for THAAD

Aegis BMD Update • 33 U.S. Navy Aegis BMD Cruisers/Destroyers

– Proliferating new 2nd Generation Integrated Air and Missile Defense (i.e., Launch on Remote) capability throughout the Fleet to Pace the Threat

– 38 Aegis BMD capable ships by 2018

• International Aegis Partners include Japan, Spain, Korea, Norway and Australia– Interest from Canada and Turkey

• MEADS Follow On - MEADS based Air Defense System

• Program status – Anticipating decision by Germany to issue Request For

Proposal

– MEADS participating in the Polish Narew (Short Range Air

Defense) technical dialogues

MDA Targets Update • Operationally-realistic testing against threat-

representative targets is key to validating Ballistic Missile Defense System effectiveness

• Lockheed Martin is currently on contract with the Missile Defense Agency to provide launch vehicles and re-entry vehicles for BMDS testing– 47 of 48 successful target missions since 1996

Air-launched Extended Medium-Range Ballistic Missile Target

– 47 of 48 successful target missions since 1996

• Lockheed Martin United Kingdom (Ampthill) supports all MDA Target systems through the design and manufacture of target payloads

• Preparations are underway to support additional flight test missions in 2015 and 2016

Ground-launched Medium-Range Ballistic Missile Target for Aegis BMD

FTX-20, October 2014

• More reliable, effective and affordable kill vehicle required to maintain GMD effectiveness –Redesigned EKV

• RKV Concept Definition and Program Planning (CDPP) contract

– 3 contractors (Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, Boeing)

– Develop concept designs, performance, cost, and

Redesigned EKV (RKV) Status

10

– Develop concept designs, performance, cost, and schedule for RKV development and production

• MDA Leading RKV Design

– MDA sees attractive features in each contractor’s concept

– Formed Best of Breed Team with Lockheed Martin, Raytheon & Boeing

– MDA will own the design and partner with industry team for development and subsequently production
