Space-Based Interceptors

Abstract

The Space Technology Development and Prototyping effort will develop and demonstrate a prototype proliferated Low Earth Orbit (pLEO) communications and data transport layer and its sub-constellations to provide the eight capabilities outlined in the DoD Space Vision. Developing and fielding a pLEO space architecture will significantly improve U.S. resilience posture in space. This effort is focused on developing a government reference architecture for a space-based kinetic interceptor layer for boost-phase defense.
