The USS CARL M LEVIN (DDG 120) successfully completed Flight Test Aegis Weapon System-48 (FTM-48), also known as Vigilant Wyvern, north of the Pacific Missile Test Range Facility in Kauai, Hawaii. Employing the latest advancements to the Aegis Combat System, USS CARL M LEVIN (DDG 120) simultaneously engaged multiple Anti-ship Cruise Missile and Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) targets, a significant first for the Aegis Combat System. The successful execution of FTM-48 by the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) and the U.S. Navy Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems (PEO IWS) demonstrates consistent evolution and innovation of the Lockheed Martin developed Aegis Combat System.
