ICBM-T2 [MDA]
The ICBM-T2 three stage launch vehicle is based likely on a Trident-C4 stage one and two Pegasus-based stages for simulating ICBM warheads for MDA.
The target vehicle is built by Orbital ATK, now Northrop Grumman Innovation Systems (NGIS). The first stage is a refurbished Trident-C4 stage topped by two stages based on Orion-50 motors, similar to the IRBM-T1 target missile.
The vehicle is ground launched from Meck Island on the Reagan Test Site at Kwajalein.
