Abstract

This program develops and integrates Battle Management and Command and Control (BMC2) applications for the Joint Task Force - Space Defense (JTF-SD). JTF-SD is one of two subordinate commands to USSPACECOM and has the responsibility to protect and defend space assets from both terrestrial and space-based threats. The JTF-SD executes its mission through its operations center, the National Space Defense Center (NSDC) which was previously referred to as the Joint Interagency Combined Space Operations Center. NSDC efforts include integrating hardware and software prototypes to support various networks developed by mission partners and integrating applications developed by the Space C2 program to ensure relevant and accurate situational awareness to mission partners. NSDC also conducts early prototyping efforts to inform JTF-SD's ability to generate informed BMC2 and space superiority requirements for the acquisition community. The JTF-SD (and NSDC) allows the national security space community to effectively respond to space threat events and will have the capability to develop, test, and integrate new space system tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) in support of both DoD and Intelligence Community operations. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
