            (A) as an exercise of the rulemaking power of the House of 
        Representatives and the Senate, respectively, and, as such, 
        shall be considered as part of the rules of either House and 
        shall supersede other rules only to the extent they are 
        inconsistent therewith; and
            (B) with full recognition of the constitutional right of 
        either House to change the rules so far as they relate to the 
        procedures of that House at any time, in the same manner, and

SEC. 5. OPERATIONALLY REALISTIC TESTING AGAINST COUNTERMEASURES FOR 
              NATIONAL MISSILE DEFENSE.

    (a) Testing Requirements.--The Secretary of Defense shall direct 
the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization--
            (1) to include in the ground and flight testing of the 
        National Missile Defense system that is conducted before the 
        system becomes operational any countermeasures (including 
        decoys) that--
                    (A) are likely, or at least realistically possible, 
                to be used against the system; and
                    (B) are chosen for testing on the basis of what 
                countermeasure capabilities a long-range missile could 
                have and is likely to have, taking into consideration 
                the technology that the country deploying the missile 
                would have or could likely acquire; and
            (2) to determine the extent to which the exoatmospheric 
        kill vehicle and the National Missile Defense system can 
        reliably discriminate between warheads and such 
        countermeasures.
    (b) Funding Requirements.--The Secretary, in consultation with the 
Director of the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization, shall--
            (1) determine the amount of additional funding, if any, for 
        the National Missile Defense system (in addition to that 
        previously programmed) that may be necessary for the Secretary 
        to fulfill the requirements set forth in subsection (a) in 
        fiscal years after fiscal year 2002; and
            (2) submit that determination to the congressional defense 
        committees at the same time that the President submits the 
        budget for fiscal year 2003 to Congress under section 1105(a) 
        of title 31, United States Code.
    (c) Report by Secretary of Defense.--(1) The Secretary of Defense 
shall submit to Congress, not later than April 15 each year, an annual 
report on the Department's efforts to establish a program for 
operationally realistic testing of the National Missile Defense system 
against countermeasures. The report shall be submitted in both 
classified and unclassified form.
    (2) Each such report shall include the Secretary's assessment of 
the following:
            (A) The countermeasures available to foreign countries with 
        ballistic missiles that the National Missile Defense system 
        could encounter in a launch of such missiles against the United 
        States.
            (B) The ability of the National Missile Defense system to 
        defeat such countermeasures, including the ability of the 
        system to discriminate between countermeasures and reentry 
        vehicles.
            (C) The plans to demonstrate the capability of the National 
        Missile Defense system to defeat such countermeasures and the 
        adequacy of the ground and flight testing to demonstrate that 
        capability.
    (3) No annual report is required under this subsection after the 
National Missile Defense system becomes operational.
    (d) Independent Review Panel.--(1) The Secretary of Defense shall 
seek to arrange for the National Academy of Science to establish an 
independent panel to be composed of scientific and technical experts.
    (2) The Panel shall assess the following:
            (A) The countermeasures available for use against the 
        United States National Missile Defense system.
            (B) The operational effectiveness of that system against 
        those countermeasures.
            (C) The adequacy of the National Missile Defense flight 
        testing program to demonstrate the capability of the system to 
        defeat the countermeasures.
    (3) After conducting the assessment required under paragraph (2), 
the Panel shall evaluate--
            (A) whether sufficient ground and flight testing of the 
        system will have been conducted before the system becomes 
        operational to support the making of a determination, with a 
        justifiably high level of confidence, regarding the operational 
        effectiveness of the system;
            (B) whether adequate ground and flight testing of the 
        system will have been conducted, before the system becomes 
        operational, against the countermeasures that are likely, or at 
        least realistically possible, to be used against the system and 
        that other countries have or likely could acquire; and
            (C) whether the exoatmospheric kill vehicle and the rest of 
        the National Missile Defense system can reliably discriminate 
        between warheads and such countermeasures.
    (4) Not later than April 15 each year, the Panel shall submit to 
the Secretary of Defense and to Congress a report on its assessments 
and evaluations. The report shall include any recommendations for 
improving the flight testing program for the National Missile Defense 
system or the operational capability of the system to defeat 
countermeasures that the Panel determines appropriate.
    (e) Countermeasure Defined.--In this section, the term 
``countermeasure''--
            (1) means any deliberate action taken by a country with 
        long-range ballistic missiles to defeat or otherwise counter a 
        United States National Missile Defense system; and
            (2) includes, among other actions--
                    (A) use of a submunition released by a ballistic 
                missile soon after the boost phase of the missile;
                    (B) use of anti-simulation, together with such 
                decoys as Mylar balloons, to disguise the signature of 
                the warhead; and
                    (C) use of a shroud cooled with liquid nitrogen to 
                reduce the infrared signature of the warhead.

Summary: National Missile Defense Deployment Criteria Act of 2001 - Amends the National Missile Defense Act of 1999 to allow deployment of a national missile defense system (system) only if: (1) the system is technologically feasible. (2) system cost in relation to other Department of Defense (DOD) priorities will not lead to an overall reduction in national security by reducing resources available for other defense priorities, (3) the system will not diminish overall US national security. (4) the system will not threaten to disrupt relations with US nuclear allies, US European allies, Russia, the People's Republic of China, and other nations. And (5) the threat of a long-range ballistic missile attack from a nation of concern is clearly demonstrated. Prohibits the President from directing DOD to deploy a system unless and until: (1) the President certifies to Congress that the above deployment conditions have been met. And (2) a joint resolution is enacted concurring in the President's certification. Prohibits DOD procurement funds from being obligated for a system unless: (1) the President certifies to Congress that adequate system tests have been undertaken to meet identified threats against countermeasures. And (2) a joint resolution is enacted concurring in the President's certification. Requires the Secretary of Defense to direct the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization to: (1) include specified system countermeasures in system ground and flight testing conducted before the system becomes operational. And (2) determine the extent to which the exoatmospheric kill vehicle and the system can reliably discriminate between warheads and such countermeasures.
