Strategic Systems

The critical challenge that strategic systems pose for government decision-makers is ensuring that these vital but rarely employed systems perform as intended. APL’s strategic systems activities are focused in the Strategic Systems Business Area (SSBA) and the Strategic Posture Office (SPO). The SSBA has made critical contributions to the Navy’s Fleet Ballistic Missile system program for more than 40 years. The SPO is rising to the challenge of re-defining strategic systems from the legacy nuclear mission to a broad set of responses to current and future national security challenges. Our track record demonstrates unequaled expertise in system development, and test, and evaluation. We are applying that knowledge to the newly expanded roles of strategic systems in DoD transformation. In a dynamic and difficult security environment, APL is leading the pursuit for new strategic solutions.
