OBSOLETE. The BE Probe is a concept for a ground launched probe version of the BE space-based satellite, analogous to the obsolete GSTS, that would leverage heavily the applicable BE Flight Demonstration System (FDS) developed equipment. BEP could be developed and deployed on a shorter schedule and could provide interim above-the-radar) horizon threat tracking and precommit for the interceptor. The concept requires the addition of non-FDS LWIR sensor to a sub-set of the existing sensor complement, and is part of potential Contingency Deployment Options. Also called the Ground Launched Probe (GLP).
