Resilient MW/MT - LEO
Abstract
The Space Development Agency (SDA) is developing and demonstrating next generation space capabilities for the joint warfighter enabled by proliferation of satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and a new acquisition model utilizing rapid spiral development. SDA is developing capabilities to address a wide range of Department of Defense (DoD) space needs as stated in the National Defense Strategy and DoD Space Vision, including advanced missile tracking and global surveillance enabling beyond-line-of-sight targeting. SDA will orchestrate the rapid development and fielding of the National Defense Space Architecture (NDSA), a resilient military sensing and data transport capability via a proliferated space architecture in LEO. This program element funds the development and demonstration of space technologies to deliver advanced missile tracking, global surveillance and surface moving target custody, and enhanced space domain awareness and deterrence capabilities to U.S. joint warfighting forces in bi-annual tranches, beginning in FY 2022. This program is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD) because it has passed Milestone B approval and is conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full rate production.
