The Space Force has opted not to request funding for the effort, relying instead on congressional largesse including a $50 million add in the Fiscal 2022 Omnibus Appropriations Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The head of Space Systems Command Lt. Gen. Michael Guetlein said today during the <a href=\"https:\/\/c4isrconf.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">C4ISRNET Conference<\/a> in Arlington, Va., that the service recognizes the need but is still defining its plan for responsive launch and, more broadly, responsive space capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re trying to understand where we need rapid space capabilities and rapid space replenishment going forward,\u201d he said. \u201cRather than just focusing on the launch problem, we\u2019re focusing on the entire launch to capability on orbit construct.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Space Force\u2019s Space Safari Program Office began running Tactically Responsive Space Launch missions in 2020 with a goal of developing and launching small satellites on a rapid timeline. Last year, the service <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/battlefield-tech\/space\/2021\/06\/14\/northrop-grumman-launches-experimental-satellite-for-the-space-force-from-a-plane\/\" target=\"_blank\">launched its second Tactically Responsive Launch mission<\/a>, TacRL-2, using Northrop Grumman\u2019s Pegasus XL rocket to lift payloads into low Earth orbit from a modified Stargazer L-1011 aircraft in flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Guetlein said that mission demonstrated the ability to respond to a requirement with a capability within 10 months, and the service is planning another TacRL mission for fiscal 2023 that he expects will \u201cdrastically accelerate that capability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the service prepares for the demonstration, it is working closely with its force design organization, the Space Warfighting Analysis Center, to better understand how tactically responsive space capabilities can be used to respond to urgent or wartime needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think the demonstration that we\u2019re going to do in FY 23 will inform that force design, and it will inform our future budget inputs to get after that future fight,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While Congress pushes for the Space Force to craft a plan for
