Navy, MDA Test Lockheed-Made Aegis Combat System Aboard USS Carl Levin
The U.S. Navy and the Missile Defense Agency demonstrated the multiple target detection feature of a Lockheed Martin-built Aegis Weapon System installed on the destroyer USS Carl Levin during an integrated air and missile defense test. The joint test, called Vigilant Wyvern, saw the Aegis Weapon System-48 engage anti-ship cruise missiles and ballistic missile defense targets in a realistic IAMD scenario in the Pacific Missile Test Range Facility in Kauai, Hawaii, Lockheed said Thursday.
