4. 4 MPAR Symposium / Implementation Strategy FAA is committed to R&D funds to assess MPAR as a: –Cost-effective backup to next-generation cooperative surveillance system –Possible replacement for legacy weather radars NOAA has been funding the National Weather Radar Testbed at annual baseline rate –NOAA in final stages of identifying additional funding beginning in FY10 for MPAR risk-reduction program From Under Secretary mtg on North American Air Defense –DoD and DHS must take active role in assessing emerging approaches to improving the Nation’s surveillance capabilities, including MPAR MPAR Program Status

5. 5 Summary MPAR planning process has included federal agencies, academia, military laboratories, and radar industry Initial analysis indicates MPAR is technically feasible to meet multiple user needs Affordability issue can only be addressed through a managed risk-reduction R&D program Large cost of R&D effort for MPAR beyond scope of any one agency –Requires interagency cooperation to succeed Now is the time to begin evaluation of MPAR
