LGM-118 Peacekeeper Missile Background The Peacekeeper missile is America's newest intercontinental ballistic missile, and it forms the core of the ICBM modernization program. Its deployment fulfilled a key goal of the strategic modernization program and increased strength and credibility to the ground-based leg of the U.S. strategic triad. With the end of the Cold War, the U.S. has begun to revise its strategic policy and has agreed to eliminate the multiple re-entry vehicle Peacekeeper ICBMs by the year 2003, as part of the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty II. The Air Force successfully conducted the first test flight of the Peacekeeper June 17, 1983, from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif. The missile traveled 4,190 miles before dropping six unarmed test re-entry vehicles on planned target sites in the Kwajalein Missile Test Range in the Pacific Ocean. The missile was fired from above-ground canisters in its first eight tests. Thereafter, test flights were conducted from Minuteman test silos reconfigured to simulate operational Peacekeeper sites. The Air Force achieved initial operational capability in December 1986. Full operational capability was achieved in December 1988 with the establishment of a squadron of 50 missiles. Features The Peacekeeper is capable of delivering 10 independently targeted warheads with greater accuracy than any other ballistic missile. It is a four-rocket stage ICBM system, consisting of three major sections: the boost system, the post-boost vehicle system, and the re-entry system. The boost system consists of three rocket stages that launch the missile into space. Following the burnout and separation of the boost system's third stage, the post-boost vehicle system maneuvers the missile in space as its re-entry vehicles are deployed in sequence. The post-boost vehicle system is made up of a fourth rocket stage combined with a guidance and control system. The vehicle rides atop the boost system, weighs about 3,000 pounds and is 4 feet long. The top section of the Peacekeeper is the re-entry system. It consists of the deployment module, up to 10 cone-shaped re-entry vehicles and a protective shroud. The shroud protects the re-entry vehicles during ascent. It is topped with a nose cap, containing a rocket motor to separate it from the deployment module. Each deployed re-entry vehicle follows a ballistic path to its target.
