What You Can Expect To Do

The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) program is a crucial part of the Missile Defense System.

C2BMC provides a layered missile defense capability, offering an optimized response to threats across all ranges and flight phases. It functions as a force multiplier by connecting, integrating, and synchronizing autonomous sensor and weapon systems and operations both worldwide and locally to enhance overall performance.

Additionally, C2BMC plays a key role in all ground and flight tests that verify and demonstrate the missile defense system's current and future capabilities.
