SDA employs a capability-focused business model prioritizing speed and lowering costs, by harnessing commercial development to achieve proliferation and enhance resilience of the architecture. The objective is to rapidly evolve development processes and field capability on a significantly faster timeline than traditional space systems acquisition. In pursuit of this objective, SDA requires SVs from multiple sources in multiple configurations to operate in an integrated fashion through a common ground system. Operation of the T1TL constellation and future capability layers and tranches will be conducted from two redundant, geographically separated, and Government-owned and Contractor-operated (GOCO) SDA Operation Centers (OC) via globally dispersed ground terminals.
