Illustration of the Resilient Missile Warning Tracking (MWT) architecture in Medium Earth Orbit (MEO), provided by BAE Systems Space and Mission Systems
The rendering of the Resilient Missile Warning Tracking (MWT) architecture in Medium Earth Orbit (MEO), provided by BAE Systems Space and Mission Systems, depicts satellites within an entirely new constellation providing robust Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) sensing capabilities. The $1.2 billion award to BAE Systems Space and Mission Systems for 10 Epoch 2 vehicles under this Resilient MWT program ensures delivery of resilient global hypersonic missile tracking access as part of the broader missile defense architecture. Systems Command (SSC), Space Development Agency (SDA), and Missile Defense Agency (MDA) as part of a combined program office approach, ensure collaborative approaches for programs like Resilient MWT ensure delivery of critical capabilities on rapid timelines.
