Hypersonic and Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor
The Hypersonic Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor (HBTSS) is a satellite-based sensor system being developed by the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to guide the Glide Phase Interceptor (GPI) against enemy hypersonic missiles. HBTSS emerged after the 2019 Missile Defense Review suggested the development of better space-based targeting systems for national missile defense. It is designed to track missiles from launch to interception.
