Description

Funded at $8 billion to nearly $10 billion per year, the Missile Defense Agency’s (MDA) effort to develop and field a Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) is the largest R and D program in the DoD. The program has been managed in 2-year increments, known as blocks. Block 2006, the second BMDS block, was completed in Dec. 2007. By law, an annual audit must be performed to assess MDA’s progress. This testimony is based on an assessment of MDA’s progress in: (1) meeting Block 2006 goals for fielding assets, completing work within estimated cost, conducting tests, & demonstrating the performance of the overall system in the field; and (2) making managerial improvements to transparency, accountability, and oversight.
