About this award
The U.S. Space Force's Space and Missile Systems Center awarded a $86.1 million firm fixed-price delivery order to Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) on June 27, 2025, under the National Security Space Launch (NSSL) Phase 3 Lane 1 indefinite delivery vehicle. This delivery order, with an ultimate completion date of April 13, 2027, supports the federal government's critical national security space launch requirements, providing assured access to space for Department of Defense and intelligence community satellites and spacecraft. The award represents no small business set-aside and will be performed in El Segundo, California, leveraging SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launch systems to deploy essential national security payloads into orbit.
NSSL is a Major Defense Acquisition Program under the Major Capability Acquisition pathway that ensures reliable and responsive launch services for military and intelligence assets. SpaceX's $5.6 billion NSSL Phase 3 Lane 1 IDIQ contract, established in June 2024 and extending through June 2029, enables the Space and Missile Systems Center to issue delivery orders for launch services, mission-unique support, and early integration studies. This specific delivery order is one of multiple awards issued under the broader NSSL program, which also includes contracts with competitors such as United Launch Alliance to maintain competitive access to space lift capabilities and support the nation's strategic space infrastructure objectives.
