Analysts are sorting out the cause of a "beam misalignment" that occurred during the U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA) Airborne Laser (ABL) program's third intercept attempt Feb. 11.

Three separate ABL target engagements have taken place. The first was conducted quietly Feb. 3 by MDA; it was only announced after the Feb. 11 flight trials. MDA Director Army Lt. Gen. Patrick O'Reilly says the agency wanted to wait until lethality was demonstrated against a liquid-fueled target to announce the engagements. During the first test, a Terrier Black Brant unguided sounding rocket was destroyed in flight off the coast of California.
