I am confident that SP Guide Publications would continue to inform, inspire and influence.
My compliments to SP Guide Publications for informative and credible reportage on contemporary aerospace issues over the past six decades.
Aerojet has been competitively selected by Raytheon Missile Systems to complete the development of the throttling divert and attitude control system (TDACS) for the standard missile-3 (SM-3) Block IIA programme, an advanced version of the SM-3 now in development. The development contract will extend through 2016 and will be followed by a planned production programme.
“This is an important win for Aerojet,” said Vice President of Missile Defense and Strategic Systems, Michael Bright. “It is the culmination of more than 18 years of company-sponsored research and development and government programme work at Aerojet. We look forward to working with Raytheon on completing the development of this very important missile defence capability for use in the defence of the United States and Japan.”
SM-3 is being developed as part of the US Missile Defense Agency’s (MDA) sea-based Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System. Block 1A interceptors are deployed on US Aegis cruisers and destroyers and Japanese destroyers to defend against short- to intermediate-range ballistic missile threats in the ascent and mid-course phases of flight.
