## What project 643729 buys

SDA is rapidly developing and demonstrating next generation space capabilities for the joint warfighter enabled by proliferation of satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and expedited acquisition model utilizing rapid spiral development. SDA is developing capabilities to address a wide range of Department of War (DoW) space needs that align with the United States Space Force Space Warfighting framework and includes space-based battle management and a ground support infrastructure. SDA will orchestrate the rapid development and fielding of the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA), 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 space-based command and control, tasking, mission processing and dissemination capabilities, as well as an integrated, resilient network of ground support capabilities, to U.S. joint warfighting forces in bi-annual tranches, which began in FY 2022.

**R-3 lines of work:** Product Development.
