Description

Jack L. Brock & Keith Rhodes. The DoD has been researching & developing defenses against ballistic missile attacks. In 1990, DoD awarded R&D contracts to develop & test kill vehicles. One of the contractors, Rockwell Internat., subcontracted a portion of its kill vehicle design work to TRW, which was tasked with developing software that could operate on a computer onboard the kill vehicle. This report discusses a former TRW employee’s lawsuit, addressing the following: Did Boeing & TRW disclose the key results & limitations of the flight test? What were the methodology, findings, & limitations of the eval? What was the basis for the DoJ’s decision not to join the lawsuit? & How did the DoD assure itself that the Engineering Team could provide an indep. & objective review?
