The efforts of the AFCGI contractor will be central to the successful execution of the Fire-control On Orbit-support-to-the-war Fighter (FOO Fighter or F2) prototype system (launching in Q1FY27) and follow-on “F2-like” demonstration programs.
The AFCGI Contractor will: 1) deliver and manage ground segment resources, including but not limited to Ground Entry Points and terrestrial communication networks; 2) fit-out and manage a Government-Owned, Contractor-Operated (GOCO) facility called the Demonstration Operations Center; 3) Manage a GOCO cloud environment to provide cloud services, including but not limited to hosting space vehicle mission operations center software, data archiving, enabling remote access to data during on-orbit demonstrations, enabling data processing and analysis, hosting mission partner software, and interfacing with mission partner systems; and 4) provide program management, systems engineering, integration; verification, and operations and maintenance of the AFC ground infrastructure.
