The purpose of this paper is to discuss M&S activities that have contributed to the Ground Based Air Defence System (GBADS) programme over the years and to look specifically at the future role of M&S within the Joint Air Defence (JAD) environment. Examples of simulation studies and field exercises in support of doctrine development during the acquisition process are presented. The paper highlights some lessons learnt and some insight into where M&S could contribute in future. The paper concludes by discussing the way forward for M&S within the GBADS programme with specific reference to Project FELLOWSHIP
