The $93,704,410 award was issued by Space Systems Command in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The modernization effort is intended to create a standardized technical foundation for upgrading ground-based radar systems.
“SciTec is honored to support the Space Force,” said David Simenc, SciTec President. “This effort strengthens national defense, modernizing vital radar infrastructure and ensuring the United States maintains an operational advantage in an increasingly contested environment while minimizing total lifecycle costs to taxpayers and warfighters.”
SciTec is a wholly owned subsidiary of Firefly Aerospace and is headquartered in Princeton, New Jersey. The company has more than four decades of experience supporting national security missions with AI-enabled defense software and cloud-based, on-premise and edge processing.
Its software and data-processing capabilities support missile warning and defense, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, space domain awareness, remote sensing and autonomous command and control. The new Space Force award adds ground-based radar modernization to that portfolio of defense and intelligence work.
Firefly Aerospace operates across launch, lunar and orbital space systems as well as defense technologies. Its engineering, manufacturing and test facilities are co-located in central Texas to support vertical integration across its space programs.
