“#US warship successfully destroys ICBM target in test off Hawaii<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n A US warship has intercepted and destroyed an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) target in a test conducted northeast of Hawaii, the US Missile Defense Agency (MDA) said.<\/p>\n

The test, conducted on Nov 16, involved an Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense-equipped destroyer which the MDA did not identify.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have demonstrated that an Aegis BMD-equipped vessel equipped with the SM-3 Block IIA missile can defeat an ICBM-class target,\u201d said vice admiral and MDA director Jon Hill.<\/p>\n

The Standard Missile 3 Block IIA (SM-3 IIA) was developed by a joint venture between Raytheon Co and Japan\u2019s Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd.<\/p>\n

The ICBM was destroyed outside Earth\u2019s atmosphere, Raytheon said in a separate statement.<\/p>\n

Hill said the test could augment the Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) system, a network of radars, anti-ballistic missiles and other equipment designed to protect the United States from ICBMs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Department is investigating the possibility of augmenting the GMD system by fielding additional sensors and weapon systems to hedge against unexpected developments in the missile threat,\u201d he said.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
