Rocket Lab Corporation announced it has been awarded a prime contract valued at $816 million by the U.S. Space Development Agency $(SDA)$ to design and manufacture 18 satellites for the Tracking Layer Tranche 3 (TRKT3) program under the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA). The contract includes a base value of $806 million with up to $10.45 million in options.
