Millennium Space Systems, a Boeing company, completed the Fire-control On Orbit-support-to-the-war Fighter, or FOO Fighter, preliminary design review, or PDR, four months following authorization to proceed. The company is on contract to deliver a constellation of eight satellites with a ground system and to perform mission operations.<\/p>\n
“Just like the name says, our focus is the warfighter and ensuring our system can perform the mission they need,” said Michelle Parker, Vice president of <\/strong>Boeing<\/strong> Space Mission Systems<\/strong>. “FOO Fighter really showcases our team’s ability to meet the mission, supporting a real-time warfighter need. Completing PDR in such a short timeframe is significant because it validates the feasibility and design of the system, ensuring we are moving with pace to meet mission requirements.”<\/p>\n FOO Fighter will demonstrate advanced missile defense capability by incorporating fire control-quality sensors into a prototype constellation. Millennium Space Systems has direct experience with proven real-time space operations and data dissemination and has also developed and demonstrated a flexible framework, enabling high-performance edge processing for real-time fire-control target tracking.<\/p>\n “We’re building off our common bus architecture, so our bus design is solid,” said Doug Hulse, portfolio lead, Millennium Space Systems<\/strong>. “For PDR, that allowed us to focus on the mission itself \u2013 that’s what’s critical.”<\/p>\n The company is now working toward critical design review in early 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Millennium Space Systems, a Boeing company, completed the Fire-control On Orbit-support-to-the-war Fighter, or FOO Fighter, preliminary design review, or PDR, four months following authorization to proceed.
