Session
Technical Session I: The Future- Military Missions Under Development Or Proposed That Provide Measurable Utility To The Warfighter
Abstract
A standardized spacecraft has long been a topic of discussion in the space community. Several vendors and customers have pursued the development of a standardized spacecraft to: a) achieve cost savings by minimizing non-recurring engineering for production vehicles, b) achieve operational savings by standardizing the tracking, telemetry and control (TT &C) functions, and c) improve schedule performance by being able to launch predictably and on need.
