The Space Development Agency (SDA) is issuing this Other Transaction (OT) authority solicitation for a prototyping effort of the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA) Tranche 2 (T2) Tracking Layer. The T2 Tracking Layer prototyping effort will accelerate the capability to provide global, persistent indications, detection, warning, tracking, and identification of conventional and advanced missile threats, including hypersonic missile systems. The T2 Tracking Layer will also demonstrate a missile defense capability by incorporating Fire Control quality sensors in the constellation. The T2 Tracking scope includes the procurement and deployment of 54 – and potentially more – space vehicles (SVs) with infrared (IR) sensors in six (6) orbital planes. Additional prototyping of satellites and sensor payloads may also occur under this OT in order to inform requirements and constellation design. The fully deployed Tracking Layer is estimated to include more than 100 SVs in low Earth orbit (LEO) across multiple planes. To receive the solicitation’s CUI content, please include your organization’s CAGE code and location in your request. For classified content, please include a JWICS email address in your request.
