Because of the Committee's concerns that the Department of Defense (DOD) might not be giving sufficient emphasis to cruise missile defenses, Committee on Armed Services asked GAO to review DOD's progress in establishing adequate mechanisms for coordinating cruise missile defense programs. Our objectives were to (1) identify the organizational structure and mechanisms for coordinating cruise missile defense efforts, (2) determine potential measures of the progress of coordination efforts, (3) assess the progress of coordination using these measures, and (4) identify the challenges that DOD officials believe still must be overcome. Because of interest, this report focuses on defense against land attack cruise missiles. Committee also asked GAO to identify the systems that have or will have cruise missile defense capabilities and the amount of funding being requested or planned for these programs. We agreed to provide the system and funding information in a separate briefing.
