Missile-to-missile high speed communication can greatly enhance the operational effectiveness of the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) of the United States.Currently, information from the first interceptor is sent to the launch control and then from the launch control to the second interceptor. The round-trip signal latency decreases the likelihood of successful interception. The approach proposed by CesiumAstro uses a phased array-based communication system that automatically establishes the missile-to-missile link. In addition, the proposed system can simultaneously maintain links with additional assets, such as satellites, ships, and ground tracking stations.Approved for Public Release | 17-MDA-9395(24 Oct 17)
