Developing a Space-Based Layer for Missile Defense

December 15, 2016

Today, at the U.S. Capitol Building, MDAA was honored to host a Congressional Roundtable Series discussing our nation’s space-based sensor layer and its central role in the ballistic missile defense system. Speaking at the event were representatives and leaders from the U.S. Air Force and Missile Defense Agency (MDA), two U.S. organizations responsible for operating this space-based sensor layer. Speaking was Major General Roger Teague, Director of Space Programs at the U.S. Air Force Acquisition Office, and Richard S. Matlock, Program Executive, Advanced Technology, at the MDA.
