Officials of the U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA) in Dahlgren, Va., announced a potential $44 million contract to Corvid Technologies on Thursday to provide mathematical algorithm development, computational analysis, and range safety analysis support for MDA flight tests.

The MDA’s mission is to develop an integrated layered ballistic missile defense system to defend the U.S., its deployed forces, friends, and allies from ballistic missiles of all ranges and in all phases of flight.

The MDA’s test and measurement program provides critical data to demonstrate the effectiveness, suitability, and survivability of the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS).

Testing also contributes to U.S. non-proliferation goals by sending a credible message to the international community on U.S. ability to defeat ballistic missiles in flight…
