Project Details
For almost four decades, KBR has continuously provided mission-critical technical and engineering services for the PATRIOT missile system. PATRIOT is the most mature weapon in the U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) and a critical component of our nation’s air and missile defense. PATRIOT protects ground forces and high-value assets by countering a variety of enemy short- and medium-range tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and unmanned air vehicles (UAV).
KBR’s work directly supports the PATRIOT missile system, as well as adjunct systems. We perform all engineering changes; modification retrofits; technical upgrades; reliability, availability and maintainability (RAM) improvements; and training development for the U.S. and its allies. Our work enhances the PATRIOT system performance and ability to protect U.S. forces against evolving threats.
Project Highlights
- Provided systems engineering, integration and test support during the planning, execution and analysis phases of the largest and most complex missile defense flight test ever attempted.
- Provided systems engineering support to program office for the Army’s next generation PATRIOT radar program.
- Provided program management and system engineering support to the program office for the successful full-rate production (FRP) decision on the PATRIOT Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) Missile Segment Enhancement (MSE) missile.
