The PWSA Sweepstakes: A Look at the Latest Winners in the Space Force’s Satellite Constellation Program

The Space Development Agency (SDA), a unit of the U.S. Space Force, has been aggressively ordering and launching satellites as part of its Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA) program. The goal of PWSA is to create an interconnected constellation of satellites that provide greater redundancy and connectivity for the military. With each “Tranche” or generation, the capabilities of the constellation are expanded. The SDA has already awarded contracts worth nearly $10 billion to seven different companies to build over 400 satellites.
