## What project MT11 buys

This project provides activities for planning, analysis, and execution of Missile Defense System flight test events, including pre-and post-test ground testing (e.g. Digital and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) System Pre-Mission Tests and System Federation Validation Events). Sensor Test provides planning, analysis, and execution in accordance with the Ground Test Concept of Operations (CONOPS) supporting the Ground Test level of effort concept for Missile Defense System system-level ground tests identified in the IMTP. Test infrastructure funding provides for HWIL labs, Mission Operation Center/Mission Support Center (MOC/MSC), and program management required to operate and maintain a flight and ground test capability.

**R-3 lines of work:** Test and Evaluation.

### Test Resources

**FY2026 to FY2027 change.** Decrease from FY 2026 to FY 2027 reflects realignment of Long Range Discrimination Radar test resources from PE 0604879C to Midcourse Test PE 0604887C.

### Flight Test Execution

**FY2027 planned work.** - No funding is requested in FY 2027.

**FY2026 to FY2027 change.** Decrease from FY 2026 to FY 2027 reflects realignment of MDA Flight Test Budget from PE 0604879C to the Ballistic Missile Defense Test PE 0603914C.

## What is NOT on this page

Congressional marks, the R-2 mission description and acquisition strategy, the industry vs government split of the whole request, and related program elements are recorded at **program-element** grain — an NDAA mark lands on a PE, never on a project.
