The US Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has completed a major test (FTG-12) of a stage-selectable Ground-Based Interceptor (GBI) missile system that destroyed an air-launched Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile (IRBM) target vehicle.

Supported by contractors Northrop Grumman, Boeing, and Raytheon, FTG-12 on December 11, 2023 was a comprehensive test of MDA's Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (GMD) Ground System and Fire Control's ability to coordinate a wide variety of sensors and command and control centers in order to counter an increasing variety of targets.
