Over the past 10 years the US Army Ballistic Missile Defense Organization has been investigating the use of interferometry to develop a highly accurate radar system to use in defense of high value assets. The current SWORD concept uses this technology to support the counter air munitions defense mission and provide protection from saturation or simultaneous attack from ballistic rockets or artillery. The accuracy of the radar allow for removal of an interceptor seeker, therefore, reducing the cost of the overall system. Potential technical issues for this system concept were identified by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Research and Technology (DAS(R&T)), who sponsored a SWORD Independent Review Team (IRT) effort. The SWORD Radar S&T Program addresses these issues by determining the magnitude of system and operational errors and developing mitigation techniques to reduce these errors to the operational requirement levels. This SWORD S&T Program has been endorsed by Office of the Secretary of Defense. If the SWORD Radar S&T effort is a success, the Army will evaluate the potential of a SWORD ATD. The work in this program is consistent with the Army spectrum of operations in the Chief of Staff, Army vision: deployable, agile, versatile, and lethal. Work is performed by SMDC, Huntsville, AL. Contracts have been awarded to Technovative Applications, Brea CA; Georgia Tech Research Institute, Atlanta GA; Amtec, Huntsville AL; and Delta Research, Huntsville AL.
