The mission of the Space Force Portfolio Acquisition Executive for Infrastructure is to deliver data management, Space Force training and test capabilities, and personnel management capabilities.
Test and training activities require access to live range threat representations. The live ranges include space, ground, and link segments. Live ranges are the ultimate verifier of ground truth for system and tactics evaluations.
Infrastructure shapes the development of verified, validated, and accredited (VV&A) digital twins, models, and simulators as well as Full-Mission Trainers.
Aggressor squadrons are critical for representing threats and adversary reactions across mission threads.
A secure computing and communication infrastructure will enable distributed test and training resources to interact realistically while meeting needs for bandwidth, latency, and reliability.
Synthetic environments will replicate the space domain with its resident space objects, adversary space capabilities, and associated orbital parameters for specific events. These environments will be adaptive, collaborative, and interoperable with other platforms and space systems, enabling distributed and realistic interaction between multiple blue and red forces.
Space Systems Command looks to enhance missile tracking capability through award of latest National Security Space Launch Phase 3 Lane 1 task orders.
Junior officers across the country joined together for an in-person and virtual All-Call broadcast with Space Systems Command senior leaders last month. The discussion detailed massive service expansion plans, sweeping acquisition reforms, and elevated expectations for company grade officers (CGOs).
Honoring the memory of astronaut Ellison Onizuka, Space Systems Command (SSC) recently inspired the next generation of innovators at the annual Onizuka Space Day at El Camino College on March 14, 2026. Alongside guests from NASA and other space-based industries, the event featured engaging STEM
A surge force of U.S. Space Force Guardians and Airmen journeyed from across the United States to participate in exercise Freedom Shield 26 from March 9-19, 2026. Augmenting U.S. Space Forces-Korea, the Space Force’s component field command in the Korean Theater of Operations, this diverse surge
Two new Defensive Cyber Operations Squadrons are actively monitoring SSC’s Launch Ranges during Launch Operations to defend in real time from any adversaries attempting a cyber-attack during launch. The squadrons are located at Space Launch Delta (SLD) 30 at Vandenberg Space Force Base and SLD 45 at
The U.S. Space Force is charting a new course in digital warfare, systematically integrating artificial intelligence to sharpen its decision-making and secure the ultimate high ground. Rather than a scattershot approach, the service is embracing a strategic, three-level framework to categorize and
