Supported by the Missile Defence Agency (MDA), United States Navy, and Lockheed Martin, FTM-32 tested a real-world scenario, and the results of these flight tests continue to prove the versatility and strength of the Aegis Combat System.
“We rapidly advance and integrate our technologies to ensure the U.S. Navy has the capabilities its sailors need to meet their toughest missions today and tomorrow,” said Amr Hussein, vice president and general manager of multi-domain combat solutions at Lockheed Martin Rotary and Mission Systems. “This flight test utilized the latest updates to Aegis Baseline 9, which improves tracking, identification and intercept capabilities to solve for evolving, complex threats.”
Additionally, USS Jack H. Lucas (DDG 125), an Aegis Baseline 10 ship also participated in FTM-32.
