About Rocket Communications, Inc.
Rocket Communications, Inc., a SBA-certified women-owned small business based in Honolulu, Hawaii, operates as a prime contractor (54% of recent awards) and subcontractor on defense research, space domain awareness, and ground communications work for the Department of the Air Force and the Department of Defense Missile Defense Agency. The company is structured as a for-profit Subchapter S corporation and holds both women-owned small business and self-certified small disadvantaged business designations.
Rocket Communications' prime work centers on space domain awareness research and development, defense technology prototyping, and systems engineering. Recent capability examples include a $1.7 million SBIR Phase II definitive contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) completed in November 2022 for adaptation and optimization of space-domain training and awareness systems, and a $74,722 SBIR Phase I award from AFRL in May 2023 for space domain awareness training and planning. The company also holds a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract from the Missile Defense Agency under the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program, effective December 2025 through December 2035, positioned to support research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, cybersecurity, and modernization across air, missile, space, and cyber defense domains. An initial delivery order under SHIELD valued at $500 was issued in December 2025 for performance in Huntsville, Alabama.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward AFRL (5 awards, $1.9 million combined potential value) and the Department of the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center (5 awards), with the Missile Defense Agency representing the remaining prime customer (2 awards, $500 combined potential value). Activity has accelerated in 2024 and 2025 after a flat period in 2022–2023. The vendor's subcontract footprint includes ground systems engineering and integration work for Booz Allen Hamilton under Space Systems Command (December 2024), mesh-terrestrial ground communications network design for Sev1Tech (August 2024), and multiple Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) and COOLR Core sub-awards under Lockheed Martin (March 2022 through April 2024) involving communications payload development and government-furnished property integration. Rocket Communications competes full-and-open on its prime awards with no set-aside designations; its SBIR Phase I and II work was issued under total small business set-asides.
