The United States has embarked on a plan to protect its assets and those of its allies in the Indo-Pacific amid escalating regional security threats. Central to this plan is securing the base of the US 7th Fleet in Guam by providing a multilayered air-defence shield against threats ranging from ballistic missiles to hypersonic glide weapons and cruise missiles.
As part of the US defence budget for fiscal year (FY) 2024, the US Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has been allocated resources for expanded capability in ballistic missile defence (BMD) and hypersonic missile defence. The US Army is responsible for cruise missile defence with the Patriot and AN/MPQ-64 Sentinel radar systems. To boost survivability, the MDA has proposed a novel distributed command-and-control (C2) architecture featuring underground missile launchers and mobile C2 sites.
