About this award
The U.S. Air Force awarded a $90.96 million delivery order under the National Security Space Launch Phase 2 program to Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) on June 15, 2023. This firm fixed-price contract, which carries an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2028, represents a task order issued against SpaceX's existing National Security Space Launch (NSSL) indefinite delivery vehicle agreement. The work will be performed in Hawthorne, California, and no small business set-aside designation was applied to this award, reflecting SpaceX's competitive standing in government space launch procurement.
The National Security Space Launch program is a cornerstone Air Force initiative designed to assure continued access to space for national defense and intelligence missions through competition between certified commercial launch providers. SpaceX has become a primary U.S. government partner for NSSL services, leveraging its Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rocket systems to deploy critical national security payloads into orbit. This delivery order exemplifies the Air Force's strategy of utilizing commercial space launch capabilities to support strategic space operations while maintaining cost efficiency and schedule reliability.
