L3Harris Technologies Selected for US$1.2B MOSSAIC Programme
L3Harris Technologies has been awarded a US$23 million contract to modernise and sustain critical space infrastructure used by the United States military to keep track of activities and objects in space. The current estimated contract value with the U.S. Space Force Space and Missile Systems Center is US$1.2 billion over 10 years.
The Maintenance of Space Situational Awareness Integrated Capabilities (MOSSAIC) will provide sustainment and modernisation services for current and future ground-based Space Situational Awareness (SSA) sensors and Space Battle Management Command and Control (BMC2) capabilities.
Under the MOSSAIC contract, L3Harris will provide sustainment services for current and future ground-based space domain awareness sensors and space battle management command and control capabilities. MOSSAIC is a follow-on programme to the Systems Engineering and Sustainment Integrator programme, which L3Harris won in 2002.
“Space as a warfighting domain has a complex and interdependent system supporting it from the ground, air and space,” said Ed Zoiss, President, Space and Airborne Systems, L3Harris. “L3Harris supports our customers in each of these domains, giving us a unique understanding of the ecosystem and the mission, and enabling us to make quick modifications, provide necessary sustainment and introduce new capabilities.”
The Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC), a subordinate unit of the U.S. Air Force Space Command, is the centre of technical excellence for developing, acquiring, fielding and sustaining military space systems. SMC's mission is to deliver resilient and affordable space capabilities. The centre is responsible for on-orbit check-out, testing, sustainment and maintenance of military satellite constellations and other Department of Defense (DoD) space systems. SMC is headquartered at Los Angeles AFB in El Segundo, California.
