Air Force Lieutenant General Henry "Trey" Obering III announced that the U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA), in cooperation with the Japan Defense Agency and the U.S. Navy, today successfully completed a cooperative flight test mission. This flight test mission, entitled Joint Control Test Vehicle-1 (JCTV-1), demonstrated the performance of an SM-3 missile that has been modified with a Japan-designed advanced nosecone and the Aegis BMD Weapon System. In previous Aegis BMD flight test missions, the SM-3 missile maneuvered to eject the nosecone before deploying the kinetic warhead to intercept the target. With the modified configuration, the nosecone opens like a clamshell without any missile maneuvers. At approximately 10:45 a.m. (HST), 3:45 p.m. (EST) a simulated target was entered into the Aegis BMD Weapon System onboard the USS Lake Erie (CG 70). Based on the simulated target, the ship developed a fire control solution. At approximately 10:47 a.m. (HST), 3:47 p.m. (EST), the Lake Erie's crew launched the modified SM-3. The Aegis BMD Weapon System guided the SM-3 through its first, second, and third stages. At 10:48 a.m. (HST), 3:48 p.m. (EST), after completion of the third stage's burn, the advanced design nosecone was deployed at approximately 55 miles above the Pacific Ocean and 60 miles northwest of Kauai. For the JCTV-1 flight test mission, the kinetic warhead of the SM-3 missile was replaced with an instrumentation / telemetry package (ITP). The ITP recorded temperature and shock readings during the flight test mission and its cameras viewed the separation of the clamshell nosecone. This flight test mission is part of the U.S.-Japan Joint Cooperative Research Project that began in August 1999. The objectives of the project are to perform research on advanced components of the SM-3 missile. This flight test mission is an important milestone in the project and is an example of the close coordination between the U.S. and Japan in ballistic missile defense. MDA and the U.S. Navy cooperatively manage the Aegis BMD Program. Lockheed Martin Maritime Systems and Sensors of Moorestown, New Jersey is the Combat System Engineering Agent (CSEA) and prime contractor for the Aegis Weapon System and Vertical Launch System installed in Aegis-equipped cruisers and destroyers. Raytheon Missile Systems of Tucson, Arizona is the prime contractor for the SM-3 missile and all previous variants of Standard Missile. Approved for release 8 March 2006. 06-FYI-0072

FTM-14 two part documentary. USS Lake Erie (CG-70) successfully completed a three test event campaign comprised of an intercept of a short range ballistic missile (SRBM), tracking and simulated engagement of two medium range ballistic missiles (MRBMs) and Undersea Warfare (USW) demonstration using the Aegis BMD 3.6.1 system. Part 1 "Executive Summary" highlights each of the three events. Part 2 "Firing Event" provide a detailed account of the successful intercept of a SRBM launched from a sea based mobile platform.Courtesy of Lockheed Martin.

a Scud-like target was fired from the decommissioned amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli off the Hawaiian island. Four minutes later the USS Lake Erie launched two interceptor missiles that destroyed the target in its final seconds about 12 miles high and 100 miles off Kauai

Navy tests ship based missile defense shield off Hawaii. USS Lake Erie shot down a "Scud-like" missile with not one but two Aegis Missiles at an altitude of 12 miles. At a cost of $20 million/missile why use one when you can use two at twice the price?

Just like the Navy told us, they shot that nasty satellite out of the sky with the kind of laser-like precision they’ve been claiming they’re capable of for years. At right around 10:30 this evening, expensive missiles were fired from the deck of the USS Lake Erie, traveling into space at an excess of 5000mph which then slammed into the Alien..

Oh boy, tonight's the night. The US Navy plans to shoot down that failed satellite at 2230 ET from a ship west of Hawaii. The idea is get a shot off as early as possible in case a second attempt is required. The $10 million missile fired from the USS Lake Erie will not carry a warhead. Instead, the 22,000mph impact...

The USS Lake Erie, an Aegis class missile cruiser, will launch an SM-3 tactical missile toward the satellite from somewhere west of Hawaii, the Pentagon said. If that missile misses, the Navy has two other missiles on standby to launch, most likely on Thursday or Friday, the Pentagon said.
