Revolutionizing Missile Warning with the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture

The Elara Edge: Expert Insights on Space Security

In 2023, the Space Development Agency (SDA) launched its initial round of satellites for its Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA) with the intention of modernizing the missile warning architecture watching over our nation. The SDA followed this up with a second successful launch in September 2023, with one final launch for its Tranche 0 satellites slated for sometime later this year.
These launches demonstrate the changing dynamics of the space domain and provide a glimpse into how the Space Force and the Space Development Agency are seeking to revolutionize its procurement process to meet the pacing threat. In this episode of The Elara Edge: Expert Insights on Space Security, Elara Nova founding partner Mike Dickey, former Chief Architect of the United States Space Force, discusses how the Space Force and the Space Development Agency are leveraging commercial innovation in its implementation of the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture.
