Space Systems Command (SSC) is building a Government Owned Contractor Operated (GOCO) digital backbone in support of the acquisition mission. Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC), managed by National Security Technology Accelerator has awarded $18 million to General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) for the Enigma prototype project.
As part of this construct, Space Systems Command will develop an Immersive Digital Facility with a virtual environment to exchange and process digital information between and among Guardians and machines with greater speed, robustness and accuracy.
The United States Space Force (USSF) is tasked with protecting and defending US interests in space. Until now, the limits of that mission have been in near Earth, out to approximately geostationary (GEO) range. In November 2022, the Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a $72 million contract to Advanced Space LLC to demonstrate space situational awareness, object detection and tracking in the region of the Moon, supporting a resurgence of interest in lunar exploration and development across civil, commercial and international space agencies as part of a collaborative effort between the AFRL Space Vehicles Directorate and the Transformational Capabilities Office.
The Tetra program supports the prototyping of new technologies and Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) in support of the Department of Defense (DoD). Space Systems Command, in partnership with Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), has selected Orion Space Solutions for the Tetra-5 Other Transaction Agreement (OTA), July 22, 2022.
Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is seeking to prototype a spacecraft to demonstrate the use of currently developed technology for new Very Low Earth Orbit (VLEO, 150-300 km) missions in support of the Precise space flight experiment. The Precise Space Flight Experiment has been awarded by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to Tyvak Nano Satellite Systems, Inc. This prototype, released through the Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC), will develop a spacecraft for new Very Low Earth Orbit missions with a plan to launch in 2024.
The DEEP prototype automates manual human data exploitation techniques, and delivers finished user-friendly products at low latencies. Missions are highly dependent on resilient external Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) services that are able to recognize an interference, survive it and ensure mission essential PNT services are operational. On September 30, 2021, DEEP prototype was awarded to Slingshot Aerospace through the Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC) OTA vehicle.
Project No. 21-09: The National Security Agency (NSA) is seeking to prototype a low SWaP and high-throughput End Cryptographic Unit (ECU) for use in mesh space networks...
The DARC program is expected to follow the Middle-Tier Acquisition (MTA) pathway to include Rapid Prototyping followed by Rapid Fielding, and is expected to provide 24/7, all-weather capabilities that increases the ability to detect, track, identify and characterize objects in deep space.
Future Operationally Resilient Ground Evolution (FORGE) SBIRS Sensor Specific Processing (SSP) is a 9-month competitive prototype that plans to award to (2) teams under SpEC and will conclude with a down-select of one (1) or both contractor teams that will perform the follow-on SBIRS SSP effort...
The Space and Missile Systems Center Data Transport Division (SMC/ECXD) sought to prototype a scalable, resilient, and cyber-secure mission-data network in support of Space Force, Air Force, and Advanced Battle Management System (ABMS) efforts. Space Systems This opportunity was awarded to Sev1Tech, LLC.
SATCOM Enterprise Management & Control solicited prototypes to advance enterprise applications, data, and advanced concepts. This opportunity was awarded as of August 16, 2021.
