2010 MDA REGISTRATION FORM (PDF)
A key objective of the 8th Annual U.S. Missile Defense Conference is to maintain the legacy of providing a world-class, secure environment for all members of the U.S. Missile Defense Team to meet and discuss key issues facing the development, testing, and deployment of missile defense systems in support of national strategic objectives. The national Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) team includes senior leaders, program managers, scientists, and staff in government, defense, and industry, as well as members of active duty, Reserve, and National Guard forces training, testing, and employing missile defenses in support of national security objectives.
The conference—hosted by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) in cooperation with Raytheon Corporation, and supported by the U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA)—provides delegates access to the current state of the worldwide BMDS, including a review of national policies, service priorities, technical advances, and related issues that may support or affect the deployment of the BMDS.
Discussions will provide views of the evolutionary development of a worldwide, layered, integrated BMDS; the integration and testing of BMDS capabilities; the status of key BMDS elements; and the current political/policy environment, including the status of Allied programs in support of BMDS forward-deployed elements. Conference topics relate to the current and future issues such as integrated air and missile defense and the need for and merits of missile defense technology innovation.
Conference participation is restricted to delegates from the U.S. government and industry who have demonstrated a valid need to know and who have a valid SECRET or higher security clearance. Delegates may NOT represent the interests of non-U.S. entities.
Conference organizers have developed an informative three-day program that includes invited presentations, selected technical presentations, and other demonstrations that provide a balanced and informative program and give delegates an up-to-date assessment of the progress of the BMDS. The conference will build on the past theme of “Building Confidence through Testing”and focus on "Implementing the Ballistic Missile Defense Review.”
