The first research on the creation of systems capable of countering ballistic missile strikes in the United States began shortly after the end of World War II.

In 1958, after the separation of responsibilities between the Air Force, Navy and army command took place in the United States, work on the creation of the Wizard interceptor missile has stopped.
