Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ballistic missile defense (BMD) system is designed to detect, intercept, and destroy ballistic missiles while they are in flight. The other options, such as strategic nuclear bomber force and strategic nuclear launch vehicles, are offensive weapon systems and not designed for missile defense. Strategic defense initiative (SDI) was a proposed missile defense system that was never fully developed or implemented.
