Joint Space Integration Technology

Abstract

Joint Space Technology Integration leverages knowledge of the space environment and impacts on weapon systems to prototype, develop, test, and field joint multi-domain software and modeling solutions to fill capability gaps for Combatant Commanders. Military Application of the Space Environment (MASE) project consolidates and integrates current space environment science and technology advancements to provide capability for joint force systems in all domains to address immediate and evolving threats to U.S. forces operating in harm's way. The data provided supports rapid and agile demonstrations, exercises, and war games that provide essential validation of delivered capabilities to improve operational effectiveness. Space acquisition must respond with speed and agility to emerging adversary threats. Space Systems Command (SSC) has transformed the organization and implementation of space acquisition to an enterprise approach, to increase innovation and resiliency, leveraging international, commercial, and mission partnerships, and managing program/project priorities according to an integrated unclassified/classified enterprise space architecture. Expanding the appropriate acquisition authorities and contract mechanisms to deliver capability sooner, SSC will strategically execute experimentation, prototyping, risk reduction, and other efforts to develop new or repurpose existing capabilities. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver SCT weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 1206392SF and 1206398SF. In CY 2021 0.160M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element.
