Today's featured article
Astranis is pursuing three Department of Defense (DoD) contracting areas and one commercial area. These include:
- Resilient GPS: Led by the Space Systems Command (SSC) as a "quick start" project, aiming for a $2 billion total. The SSC plans to procure 24-30 satellites, each costing up to $80 million. Astranis, along with Axient, L3 Harris, and Sierra Space, was awarded an eight-month design concepts contract in September 2024, with $40 million allocated for design studies. The first set of satellites is expected to launch as soon as 2028. Notably, SpaceX did not bid on this contract.
- PTS-G: A Tactical MILSATCOM in GEO shaped by the SSC, with an RFP announced in November 2024. The award is expected in 2025, with a budget of $558 million over two years, potentially reaching $2 billion. This follows a GOCO model (Government Owned and Commercially Operated).
