Currently there is a large ongoing effort to develop strategic defense weapons to defend against a ballistic missile attack. Before these systems are deployed in the field, there must be great confidence in their ability to perform their assigned task. Strapped down closed loop simulations provide the most economical method of achieving this confidence. Creating the imagery for these simulations will be a major effort. This paper reviews the requirements of Computer Image Generation (CIG) systems used to produce imagery for these simulations.
