About this award
The U.S. Air Force awarded a $184.3 million firm fixed-price delivery order to Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) on June 15, 2023, for National Security Space Launch Phase 2 launch services. This delivery order, with an ultimate completion date of November 10, 2025, represents task work under a larger National Security Space Launch (NSSL) indefinite delivery vehicle contract. The award was made without a set-aside designation, reflecting SpaceX's competitive capabilities in federal space launch procurement. Performance will occur at SpaceX's facility in Hawthorne, California.
This delivery order is part of the Air Force's NSSL program, which provides responsive, assured access to space for national security payloads through competitive procurement with certified commercial launch providers. SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rocket systems have become critical assets for deploying Department of Defense intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, and other national security satellites into orbit. The Phase 2 award continues SpaceX's role as a primary launch service provider for the Space and Missile Systems Center and broader Air Force space operations, supporting the nation's critical space capabilities and strategic defense objectives.
