The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) develops an integrated Missile Defense System, integrating land, sea, air, and space-based assets to defend the United States, deployed forces, NATO Allies and Partners from missile attacks. As the integrating element, Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) is at the core of the Missile Defense System. As a subsystem of C2BMC, the CODDS provides the Combatant Commander with a Missile Defense System capability to collaboratively plan, coordinate, assess, optimize, and integrate High-Demand / Low-Density missile defense resources to defend the United States, US deployed forces, US allies, and friends against all ranges of missiles in all phases of flight. The CODDS delivers the capability to perform pre-mission analysis to determine optimized asset pairings for efficient and effective missile defense, and it initializes operational C2BMC suites with validated Defense Design Data and supports Force Level planning processes.
