AI Contract Overview
The US Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center has issued an award notice for the Long Duration Propulsive Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle Secondary Payload Adapters, known as LDPE. Building upon the Air Force Research Laboratory's ESPA technology, this initiative focuses on hosting auxiliary payloads on primary spacecraft launch missions. While primarily designed to support Mission Risk Class C and D payloads, the project mandates strict adherence to safety and risk processes compatible with Class A and B missions to ensure no harm occurs during co-manifested launches. The scope of work is divided into three primary phases. The first phase covers the assembly, integration, and testing of the LDPE platform. The second phase involves payload integration and testing along with launch vehicle integration and launch support. The final phase focuses on early orbit checkout and ongoing on-orbit support. This effort is managed by the Department of Defense under solicitation FA8818-17-R-0002.
