Theater Missile Defense Extended Test Range Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement - Eglin Gulf Test Range
Author: Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
The Ballistic Missile Defense Organization proposes to enhance the capability of the EGTR to conduct TMD programs. The Proposed Action would include the selection and construction of land-launch facilities; modification of land, sea-surface, and airspace safety zones; the amendment of range operation and support management procedures; and the subsequent conduct of TMD missile system test and training flights within the enhanced EGTR. The preferred alternative would involve target and interceptor launch and support activities at Eglin Air Force Base (AFB) sites including Santa Rosa Island and Cape San Blas; Air Drop or air-launch of target missiles; and possible Navy AEGIS ship-launch of interceptor missiles. Alternatives would include target launch and support activities at alternative locations in the Florida Keys(Cudjoe Key or Saddlebunch Keys), target missile launch from a sea-launch vessel, and interceptor launch from offshore platforms off the coast of Santa Rosa Island and Cape San Blas. The No-action Alternative that does not provide extended test capabilities for TMD testing and training in the EGTR is also considered.

Book Description
This document describes the analysis performed and results in selecting a suitable launch site, in the Florida Keys, for Theater Missile Defense extended range test targets aimed at intercept points over the Air Force Development Test Center at Eglin AFB Gulf of Mexico test range. The basis of the report is to review the sites in terms of launch safety, potential for environment impact at the sites, and contribution of the site to mission performance. Note, this siting study is not an environmental assessment. It compares only the potential for environmental impact observed at the various sites.

Book Description
The Strategic Defense Initiative Program, announced by former President Reagan on March 23, 1983, is an extensive research program designed to determine the feasibility of developing and effective ballistic missile defense systems. The program includes research of tactical or theater missile defense technologies necessary for the protection of ground forces from attacks by enemy tactical missiles. One aspect of such technology is defense against tactical missiles accomplished by intercepting and destroying a missile before it can reach its designated target. The principles of the technology to be evaluated in the Extended Range Intercept Technology (ERINT) program were initially demonstrated at lower altitudes in the successful Flexible Lightweight Agile Guided Experiment (FLAGE). The purpose of the FLAGE program included developing hit-to-kill technology and demonstrating the guidance accuracy of a small, agile, radar-homing vehicle. Provisions for the Theater Missile Defense Chemical Flight Experiments (TMDCFE) have been included in the proposed ERINT program to quantify theater missile defense (TMD) lethality against bulk chemical warheads in the TMD Bulk Chemical Experiment (TMDBCE) and against submunition chemical warheads in the TMD Submunition Chemical Experiment (TMDSCE).
