Seminar Report 2021-22 SATRACK

ABSTRACT

The Satellite Missile Tracking (SATRACK) concept was proposed in response

to an urgent need to understand the projected performance of a future advanced
strategic weapon system— Trident II (D5). To achieve its technical objectives, the
system would require technology that was envisioned but at the time was not
available. When operational, the SATRACK system would pro- vide a level of
understanding of the Trident II (D5) system’s performance that had not been
achievable for previous systems. What was not foreseen at that time was the degree to
which SATRACK would evolve and continue to significantly contribute to the Navy
for over four decades.
