The Future of Missile Defense
In President Biden’s first speech to Congress, he named the nuclear programs in North Korea and Iran “serious threats to American security and the security of the world.” Diplomacy and deterrence are key tenets of the White House’s strategy, but to ensure readiness, the Pentagon is prioritizing a robust, layered missile defense and response program.
What areas of the U.S. threat landscape are most critical to defense leaders? What advanced technical capabilities will the Pentagon deploy to mitigate risk in the near and long terms? And what are the primary challenges in American missile defense strategy?
On June 29, The Hill convenes members of Congress, defense leaders and national security experts to discuss the future of missile defense, domestic readiness and our homeland security posture.

When it comes to missile defense, no nation — and no system — can stand alone.
Protecting people, places and the principle of sovereignty itself takes vision. It takes precision. It takes technologically advanced sensors, command-and-control systems, satellites and interceptors, working in layers to defeat all types of threats, from short-range missiles to hypersonic warheads hurtling through space.
Raytheon Missiles & Defense breakthrough technologies enable sensors to see farther. They mean command-and-control systems can process data faster. And they mean operators can employ interceptors to engage their targets with even greater precision. Deployed around the world, these technologies are helping the U.S., and its allies make the world a safer place.
The company is bringing together its decades of experience and partnership with the U.S. Missile Defense Agency, U.S. Department of Defense and allied nations to help explore the demands for a future missile defense system. Learn more.
