## What project 68A035 buys

Mission Delta 2 (MD2) 2nd Sustainment Squadron is maintaining, sustaining, developing, and modernizing SDA for Guardians across MD2, USSF and other users. As a result, the Service will deliver SDA capabilities, improve readiness and operational reach of the existing force structure, and integrate Allies, partners, and commercial space to USSF units. Space Domain Awareness (SDA)/Planning/Tasking functions support the United States Space Force (USSF) and U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM). Capabilities will initially be delivered to USSF Combat Forces Command (CFC) and U.S. Space Forces - Space (S4S). The SDA/Planning/Tasking software program provides a collaborative environment that will enhance and modernize SDA and Battle Management Command and Control (BMC2) capabilities; create decision-relevant views of the space and multi-domain environment; rapidly detect, track, and characterize objects of interest; identify/exploit traditional and non-traditional sources; perform space threat analysis; and enable efficient distribution of data across the Space Surveillance Network (SSN). The program maintains enterprise infrastructure, platform, and data services, and develops mission applications to enable responsive, resilient operational-level SDA/Planning/Tasking capabilities for Mission Delta 2 (MD 2), the National Space Defense Center (NSDC), Combined Space Operations Center (CSpOC), and other Command and Control (C2) centers. Employing an agile-based Rapid Delivery Framework (RDF) with a 90-day Program Increment (PI) construct, fosters a collaborative and integrated environment for the community to effectively plan and deliver C2 capabilities. The enterprise-wide system provides a common government infrastructure and processes to allow C2 capabilities at USSF operational Deltas to rapidly address the evolving and dynamic threat. The program also identifies shared/common platform, infrastructure, and data layer solutions to support open frameworks and architectures across the enterprise ground portfolio. Funding includes technical studies, development, experimentation, integration, and related support costs.

**R-3 lines of work:** Product Development; Test and Evaluation; Management Services.
