The service is preparing the contractor support arrangement to sustain global deployments of the equipment. The jamming systems are positioned to interfere with hostile communications.
The support will cover maintenance and operations for up to 56 of the systems. The Space Force is preparing to bring on contractors to carry out that work across the global deployments.
The planned contractor support reflects the Space Force’s reliance on these systems to disrupt adversary communications, with the sustainment effort tied to keeping the deployed units operational.
Further details on the contractor selection process and timeline were not specified.
