Bryon McClain, program executive officer for space combat power, the prototypes coming out of this round of awards are scheduled to be demonstrated and folded into the broader Golden Dome architecture by 2028.\nThe interceptors themselves are envisioned as a proliferated low-Earth orbit (pLEO) constellation armed with kinetic kill vehicles capable of striking missiles during the boost, midcourse and glide phases.\nThe Pentagon is seeking $17.5 billion for the Golden Dome in fiscal 2027, but only $398 million is included in the base budget — the rest hinges on Congress approving another reconciliation package down the road.\nThe effort is being run out of a dedicated enterprise office, the Office of Golden Dome for America, led by Gen. Michael Guetlein. \nOther Pentagon services and agencies are also pitching in by contributing legacy systems or funding new capabilities through their own budgets.\nThe idea of striking missiles from orbit dates back to the 1980s, but cheaper launch costs and recent technology gains have only now made SBIs realistic. \nIn pre-solicitation materials issued last year, SSC floated the possibility of structuring the SBI effort as a prize-style competition, in which vendors would self-fund prototypes and compete for comparatively modest awards. \nThe command did not clarify whether the newly issued OTAs follow that prize model.\n“Adversary capabilities are advancing rapidly, and our acquisition strategies must move even faster to counter the growing speed and maneuverability of modern missile threats,” McClain said. \n“Utilizing Other Transaction Authority agreements, we attracted both traditional and non-traditional vendors, while harnessing American innovation, and ensuring continuous competition,” he added.\nPhoto: FoxPictures / Shutterstock\nThis content was partially produced with the help of AI tools and was reviewed and published by Benzinga editors.\nTo add Benzinga News as your preferred source on Google, click here.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.42.0","shortVersion":"4.42.0","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2630188073","isCrawlerRequest":true}
