The beyond-line-of-sight targeting and communications provided
by the Transport Layer will equip tactical warfighters around the
globe with resilient connectivity to other space assets. While the
initial Tranche 0 constellation is expected to have a limited
networked capability, future enhancements from Tranche 1 and beyond
will significantly increase the routing of data across a larger
network of space vehicles. Tranche 1 will then serve as the
backbone for Joint All Domain Command and Control – significantly
extending the United States’ global defense capabilities. Terran
Orbital previously announced a contract award from Lockheed Martin
to build 42 satellites for Tranche 1.
SDA Director Dr. Derek Tournear was on hand for the visit along
with Johnathon Caldwell, Lockheed Martin Space’s Vice President and
General Manager for Military Space.
“It was an absolute honor to host Lockheed Martin and SDA at
Terran Orbital’s newly expanded state-of-the-art facilities,” said
Terran Orbital Co-Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer
Marc Bell. “Terran Orbital will continue to rapidly expand our
production capacity precisely for these moments when we are called
upon to develop the satellites and technology used to defend our
Nation and Allies. Terran Orbital looks forward to designing,
building, and delivering the remaining nine Tranche 0 buses and the
42 Tranche 1 buses.”
In addition to the Transport Layer satellites, Terran Orbital
has previously announced a contract award to build and support
three microsatellite class satellites for Lockheed Martin.
