A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification: The Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition and Technology) and the Army Acquisition Executive (AAE) directed the establishment of the Joint Aerostat Program Management Office (PMO) for Cruise Missile Defense (CMD) and provided the funding for FY 96-01. This is a multiservice effort with the Army as the lead service. The PMO is assigned to the AAE with operational control assigned to the U. S. Army Space and Strategic Defense Command. The program mission is to maximize the battle space of land, sea and air based missiles systems by providing Over-the-Horizon (OTH) surveillance and precision track for broad area defense against land attack cruise missiles. Aerostats are theater based systems employing advanced technologies with specific attention to CMD. Aerostat sensors provide the OTH surveillance/precision tracking for the Air Directed Surface to Air Missile (ADSAM) concept. The role of the aerostat is to expand the battlefield Commander's surveillance and engagement capability against cruise missiles and other low flying aircraft by extending the battle space for systems such as Patriot, Medium Air Defense System/Corps SAM and Aegis.

Acquisition Strategy: The Joint Aerostat PMO will execute a Definition Phase by soliciting CMD architecture concepts that employ aerostats from a select group of contractors. The most promising concept(s) will be further developed as proposals for the Development phase of the program. The selected proposal(s) will be put on contract to develop two aerostat systems. An option to develop an additional two deployable prototypes may be exercised once successful end-to-end system testing is complete.
