ЦитироватьF.E. Warren tests Minuteman III missile with launch from Vandenberg
 , Air Force Global Strike Command Public Affairs / Published April 26, 2017

 VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- A combined team of Air Force Global Strike Command Airmen from the 90th Missile Wing at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, Wyoming, the 341st Missile Wing at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana, and the 625th Strategic Operations Squadron at Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska, launched an unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile equipped with a single test re-entry vehicle April 26 at 12:03 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California. The missile used in GT220 launched in the early hours of the morning with a launch command delivered from the Air Launch Control System on a Navy E-6 Mercury jet.

The ICBM's re-entry vehicle, which contained a telemetry package used for operational testing, traveled to the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands, approximately 4,200 miles away from the launch site. Test launches verify the accuracy and reliability of the Minuteman III ICBM weapon system, providing valuable data to ensure a continued safe, secure and effective nuclear deterrent.

"I can't say enough great things about the partners I share this mission set with," Col. Craig Ramsey, 576th Flight Test Squadron commander, said. "The men and women from the Task Force, the Airmen from my squadron, and our host unit here at Vandenberg made this look easy, but it was anything but that! It's a testament to the dedication and professionalism of these proud organizations. I'm proud to play a small part in it!"

F.E. Warren AFB is one of three missile bases with crew members standing alert 24 hours a day, year-round, overseeing the nation's ICBM alert forces. The Minuteman III is one of three legs of the nuclear triad, which is also comprised of strategic bombers such as the B-52 Stratofortress and B-2 Spirit, as well as submarine launched ballistic missions, provided by U.S. Navy submarines.

"I'm extremely proud of the 16 maintainers and operators from the combined 90th Missile Wing and 341st Missile Wing Task Force who worked hand-in-hand with the 576 FLTS to make this launch possible," said Lt. Col. Tony Rhoades, Task Force commander. "This mission requires a tremendous amount of discipline, training and attention to detail. Our Airmen demonstrated this with true professionalism and proved that the Minuteman III remains the nation's premier deterrence and assurance capability."

The ICBM community, including the Department of Defense, the Department of Energy, and U.S. Strategic Command uses data collected from test launches for continuing force development evaluation. The ICBM test launch program demonstrates the operational credibility of the Minuteman III and ensures the United States' ability to maintain a strong, credible nuclear deterrent as a key element of U.S. national security and the security of U.S. allies and partners.

США испытали межконтинентальную ракету Minuteman III
Спойлер
США провели успешные испытания межконтинентальной баллистической ракеты Minuteman III. Об этом в среду, 26 апреля, сообщает The National Interest со ссылкой на заявление ВВС страны.

Пуск был произведен с базы Вандерберг (штат Калифорния). Ракета, которая пролетела около 6440 километров (4000 миль), была оснащена инертной головной частью. В результате запуска была поражена условная цель на Маршалловых Островах.

«Эти запуски [ракеты] Minuteman необходимы для того, чтобы проверить состояние нашего ядерного оружия и продемонстрировать его способности», — заявил полковник Джон Мосс.

В заявлении военных также утверждается, что данное испытание позволяет убедиться, что США способны поддерживать уровень «сильного, эффективного ядерного сдерживания» как важную часть национальной безопасности.

Ранее 26 апреля сообщалось о предстоящем запуске и отмечалось, что испытания были запланированы еще год назад. В Командовании глобальных ударов ВВС США напомнили, что последний раз подобное испытание «Минитмена» проходило в феврале, обычно в год проводятся четыре старта.

Ракеты семейства «Минитмен» стоят на вооружении США с 1970 года и неоднократно проходили модернизацию. Ракета является единственной МБР наземного базирования на вооружении США. Предполагается, что эта ракета останется на вооружении до 2020 года. По данным из открытых источников, США располагают 450 МБР такого типа с 550 ядерными боеголовками.

3 мая, 15:06 UTC+3

Ракета Minuteman III пролетела 6700 км и упала в районе атолла Кваджалейн в южной части Тихого океана

МОСКВА, 3 мая. /ТАСС/. ВВС США осуществили  второй за последнюю неделю испытательный пуск межконтинентальной баллистической ракеты (МБР) Minuteman III. Об этом сообщило агентство AFP.

По данным американских военных, испытание прошло успешно. Ракета, способная нести ядерную боеголовку, была запущена с базы ВВС США Ванденберг (штат Калифорния), пролетела 6700 км и упала в районе атолла Кваджалейн в южной части Тихого океана, являющегося частью Маршалловых островов.

26 апреля ВВС США уже производили испытательный пуск такой ракеты с базы ВВС Ванденберг. Тогда ракета, головная часть которой содержала оборудование для сбора телеметрической информации, была выпущена по полигону у атолла Кваджалейн.

Новый испытательный пуск МБР, как отмечают американские СМИ, был проведен после того, как в минувшую субботу КНДР осуществила завершившийся неудачей пуск своей твердотопливной ракеты с мобильной пусковой установки.

WASHINGTON — The Missile Defense Agency's ground-based defense system successfully intercepted an intercontinental ballistic missile during the first live-fire test of its kind Tuesday, the agency said.

The Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) is designed to intercept and destroy missiles during the midcourse of their trajectory through space. Tuesday's test was the first time the system had faced a live-fire ICBM-class test, MDA said in a press release.

The interceptor launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California, and its "exo-atmospheric kill vehicle intercepted and destroyed the target in a direct collision," the release said.
Спойлер
"The intercept of a complex, threat-representative ICBM target is an incredible accomplishment for the GMD system and a critical milestone for this program," MDA Director Vice Adm. Jim Syring said in a statement. "This system is vitally important to the defense of our homeland, and this test demonstrates that we have a capable, credible deterrent against a very real threat."

Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Alabama), chairman of the House Armed Services strategic forces subcommittee, said the successful test will help deter U.S. adversaries.

"The dictator in North Korea surely understands that the United States will not allow itself or its allies to be subject to his threats," Rogers said. "We must do more to build on the success of today's test to truly keep Americans and their allies safe from the threat of ballistic missile attack."

The ICBM test target was launched from the Reagan Test Site on the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands, according to MDA. The Sea-Based X-band radar in the Pacific tracked and targeted the launch, as did "multiple sensors," MDA said, which would most likely include the Air Force's main missile-warning satellite constellation, the Space-Based Infrared System.

The intercept is likely the last major test Syring will oversee before leaving MDA. Air Force Lt. Gen. Sam Greaves, former leader of the Air Force's Space and Missile Systems Center, will succeed him.

Orbital ATK OBV Rocket and ICBM Target Successfully Complete Missile Defense Interceptor Test
Company's Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (GMD) Booster Completes 15th Consecutive Flight

Dulles, Virginia 30 May 2017 – Orbital ATK (NYSE:  OA), a global leader in aerospace and defense technologies, successfully launched and tested its Orbital Boost Vehicle (OBV) rocket for the U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA) as part of the Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) FTG-15 Flight Test. The company also supplied its Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) target rocket for this critical national security system test.

The OBV was launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California, on May 30, 2017. Orbital ATK provides the OBV to MDA as part of an industry team led by The Boeing Company (NYSE: BA).

"This flight test was a major undertaking for Orbital ATK as we supplied both the boost vehicle for the interceptor and the target," said Rich Straka, Vice President and General Manager of Orbital ATK's Launch Vehicles Division. "Today's successful test confirms the United States' missile defense program stands ready to protect against long-range missile attacks, and we are proud to be a part of that team."
Спойлер
FTG-15 was the first flight of the "C2" configuration of the OBV, which includes upgraded avionics and safety systems to address new requirements and obsolescence issues with the legacy vehicles. It was also the first flight of the ICBM range target. MDA's goal is to expand the Ground Based Interceptor (GBI) fleet to 44 missiles by the end of 2017.

"Orbital ATK is honored to be a part of MDA's charge to strengthen the national defenses from 30 to 44 GBI Interceptors in 2017," said Straka. "We understand the importance of this goal and, we are focused on mission success."

Following a preliminary post-flight analysis of the data collected from the mission, MDA and the GMD team confirmed all primary OBV objectives for the interceptor test were achieved. These included pre-launch built-in test functionality, silo launch and fly out of the OBV and accurate booster delivery of the Exoatmospheric Kill Vehicle (EKV) to enable intercept of the target.

The MDA/Orbital ATK ICBM Team also confirmed nominal operation of the target, meeting all primary mission objectives. The ICBM is largest target in a broader family of targets that Orbital ATK supplies to the MDA for Ballistic Missile Defense System testing.

Orbital ATK's missile defense interceptors and related target vehicles are primarily produced at the company's engineering and manufacturing facility in Chandler, Arizona, with solid rocket motor propulsion manufactured in Magna, Utah, and its vehicle assembly and integration facilities at Vandenberg Air Force Base, California, and Huntsville, Alabama.

Today's OBV mission was executed under the GMD Development and Sustainment Contract, which continues through at least 2018. Orbital ATK developed the OBV under a multi-year contract with Boeing that began in 2002. Together the OBV and the EKV comprise the GBI, which is assembled by Boeing.

The ICBM target was provided under the Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile contract, which continues at least thru 2019 with options for additional target vehicles and launches.

Цитироватьria.ru США успешно испытали перехватчик баллистических ракет

ВАШИНГТОН, 31 мая – РИА Новости. Военные США во вторник успешно испытали ракету, созданную для перехвата межконтинентальных баллистических ракет, сообщает агентство противоракетной обороны США.
Спойлер





По сообщению ведомства, испытывалась так называемая наземная система противоракетной обороны на маршевом участке полета (Ground-based Midcourse Defense, GMD), размещенная в Калифорнии, которая поразила ракету-мишень, выпущенную из района Маршалловых островов в Тихом океана. Уточняется, что мишень была поражена в результате "прямого столкновения".
"По предварительным данным, испытание достигло первоначальных целей, официальные лица, которые занимаются программой, будут продолжать оценивать производительность системы на основе телеметрии и других данных, полученных в ходе испытаний", — отмечается в сообщении.
Испытания проводились на фоне целой серии ракетных испытаний, предпринятых ранее в этом году КНДР. США в ответ наращивают военное присутствие в регионе, развертывают там системы ПРО в Южной Корее, а также усиливают защиту основной части страны.






По данным из открытых источников, комплекс противоракетной обороны США GMD введен в строй в 2005 году. Он предназначен для перехвата межконтинентальных баллистических ракет и их боевых частей в космическом пространстве за пределами атмосферы Земли. В настоящее время для защиты континентальной территории США развёрнуто 30 противоракет на Аляске и в Калифорнии, развёртывание еще 15 ракет планируется завершить в 2017 году.
