During a conference call with reporters on Thursday, Tournear said SDA will not disclose how much money it plans to award in contracts for the 20-satellite constellation — known as “tranche 0” of the transport layer. The agency is taking a spiral development approach, launching additional satellites with increasingly advanced capabilities in two-year tranches.

Following Tranche 0, the SDA plans to continuously upgrade and add to its on-orbit constellation in two-year cycles, with Tranche 1 coming online in FY2024, Tranche 2 supplementing the system in FY2026. SDA’s Tracking Layer will provide global indications, warning and tracking of advanced missile threats, including hypersonic missile systems. Contracts will be awarded in August, Tournear said, though the agency wants to see the proposals before deciding how many companies it will award contracts to.
