Project HALO: Hybrid All-domain LEO Operations
The government requires high-throughput, low-latency proliferated Low-Earth Orbit (pLEO) broadband telecommunications systems for resilient global connectivity across stationary, portable, land-mobile, maritime, and specialized aviation platforms. The acquisition covers commercial-grade and defense-grade satellite transport services, user terminals, specialized accessories, and optional capabilities such as sovereign ground gateways, committed information rates, and a tactical security overlay. The anticipated contract structure includes a one-year base period followed by nine one-year option periods, subject to final acquisition planning and approvals.
