The plan in FY19 was to field the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2018\/12\/18\/lockheed-martin-scores-a-big-win-in-new-radar-missile-defense-agency-radar-contract\/\" target=_blank>Homeland Defense Radar-Hawaii, or HDR-H, <\/a>by FY23, which meant military construction would have taken place beginning in FY21. Then in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/smr\/federal-budget\/2019\/03\/13\/missile-defense-review-ambitions-not-reflected-in-mdas-94b-fy20-budget\/\" target=_blank>FY20, MDA requested<\/a> $247.7 million for the radar. Lockheed Martin received an award to develop the radar in December 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But in FY21, funding for both the Hawaiian radar and the Pacific radar was missing in the request. MDA Director Vice Adm. Jon Hill said in February, when the request was released, that the agency decided to hit the brakes on its plans to set up the radars in the Pacific, instead planning to take a new look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/congress\/budget\/2017\/06\/09\/mda-even-without-sea-based-radar-we-still-can-detect-missiles-in-the-pacific\/\" target=_blank>sensor architecture in the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command region<\/a> to figure out what is necessary to handle emerging threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hill noted that the area is covered by a forward-deployed AN\/TPY-2 radar in Hawaii as well as the deployable Sea-Based X-Band radar. Additionally, Aegis ships with their radars are mobile and can be repositioned as needed to address threats in the near term, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet, over the summer, the Hawaiian radar gained traction in Congress via funding support in the House Appropriations Committee\u2019s defense subcommittee\u2019s version of the FY21 defense spending bill and the Senate Armed Services Committee\u2019s version of the defense policy bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The House subcommittee injected $133 million to pursue the homeland defense radar in Hawaii, and the SASC added in $162 million to continue HDR-H development. The SASC also included language that essentially reminded the Pentagon that HDR-H was a response to a mandate in the FY18 National Defense Authorization Act to improve coverage for the threat of ballistic missiles in Hawaii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The HDR-H was also listed as an unfunded requirement for FY21 by Indo-Pacific Command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The SASC also directed the MDA to provide an updated plan that accounts for delays related to finding a site in Hawaii, noting it expects the Pentagon to fund the program in subsequent budget requests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During a presentation at the virtually held Space and Missile Defense Symposium on Aug. 4, Hill showed a slide listing focus areas for the agency in FY21. The presentation included the currently unfunded radar, third from the top of the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe potential for getting a radar onto Hawaii as part of another major sensor allows us to have that launch-all-the-way-to-intercept view out in a very large ocean area in the Pacific,\u201d Hill said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The HDR-H is categorized as a focus area for the MDA \u201cbecause if the [Defense] Department decides to move forward with HDR-H, then the HDR-H will be deployed as part of the U.S. homeland defense architecture against long-range threats,\u201d Mark Wright, MDA spokesman, told Defense News in an Aug. 6 statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The missile defense architecture \u201cmust evolve with advancements of the threat,\u201d he added. \u201cSpace sensors do not replace but complement ground-based radars by providing track custody during radar coverage gaps. Having both terrestrial radar and space sensors provides dual phenomenology to accurately track and discriminate the threat as it continues to become more complex.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even without funding for the Homeland Defense Radar-Hawaii in the Missile Defense Agency&#8217;s FY21 budget request, the agency
