About this file
This document is a briefing package for the Ground Based Radar Digitization (GBRD) Program by the United States Space Force (USSF). The program aims to modernize six ground-based radar sites across different locations including Beale AFB (CA), PARCS Cavalier (ND), Cape Cod (MA), Clear SFS (AK), RAF Fylingdales (UK), and Pituffik Space Base, with the goal of enhancing space domain awareness capabilities and addressing obsolescence issues.
The USSF is seeking industry input on technical capabilities, sustainment strategies, contracting approaches, and collaboration opportunities. Key objectives include digitizing analog radar systems to improve tracking and classification, implementing modular open system architectures, ensuring cybersecurity compliance, and developing strategies to reduce lifecycle sustainment costs. The program supports the National Defense Strategy by continuing missile warning, missile defense, missile tracking, and space domain awareness capabilities, with a focus on leveraging commercial off-the-shelf technologies, incorporating digital receiver technology, and engaging non-traditional defense contractors including academia and small businesses.

Ground Based RADAR Digitization
GBRD Background
Digitize six radar sites to improve space domain awareness capabilities and address sustainment challenges and obsolescence.
Enhance radar performance including increased tracking capacity, extended range, and improved object classification..
Transition to a government-owned, modular open system architecture with a high level of commonality between UEWR and
PARCS back ends
The front-end, high-power Radio
Frequency (RF) components will be retained as well as the communications paths out of the radars
The GBR modernization effort supports the
National Defense Strategy by continuing;
missile warning (MW), missile defense (MD), missile tracking (MT), and improving space domain awareness (SDA) capabilities.
The program will:
Semper Supra
Modernization of Ground Based Radars under GBRD
Technical Capabilities Solutions for digitizing analog radar systems to improve tracking, classification, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) rejection Modular open system architectures to enable future upgrades and reduce sustainment costs Cybersecurity compliance for modernized radar systems Incorporation of developed digital receiver technology as the baseline receiver for the system
Sustainment Strategies Approaches to reduce lifecycle sustainment costs and address diminishing manufacturing sources and material shortages (DMSMS).
Strategies for transitioning from legacy systems to modern architectures while minimizing radar down time required
Contracting Approaches Recommendations for leveraging MTA and OTA pathways How to accelerate program execution Innovative contracting mechanisms to engage non-traditional defense contractors (including academia and small business concerns)
Industry Collaboration Opportunities for partnerships/teaming with non-traditional defense contractors (including academia and small business concerns) Insights into leveraging commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies to minimize development risks and buy commercial solutions
Objectives
The USSF seeks industry input on the following areas:
