<\/strong>Agile Space Industries<\/strong> announced that it is providing advanced propulsion technology for a variant of True Anomaly\u2019s Jackal autonomous orbital vehicle (AOV). <\/strong>True Anomaly<\/strong> is a Denver-based technology company developing advanced hardware and software for the sustainable security of space.<\/p>\n Space security and sustainability missions require True Anomaly\u2019s Jackal AOV<\/strong> to maneuver in any orbit. Propulsive efficiency is key to enabling mission flexibility so operators can \u201cmaneuver without regret<\/em>,\u201d knowing they will have ample propellant reserves for future maneuvers. In addition to efficiency, high thrust is imperative to minimize response time and maximize unpredictability to potential adversaries.<\/p>\n True Anomaly\u2019s new, highly propulsive Jackal configuration will add to the company\u2019s platform options to suit specific mission types. Agile is currently manufacturing the main engines, attitude control thrusters, propellant tanks, and other propulsion components that will be integrated into True Anomaly\u2019s production line on an accelerated schedule to enable the company\u2019s multi-orbit, high-acceleration, and high delta-V Jackal requirements. <\/p>\n True Anomaly was recently selected for a contract by <\/strong>Space Systems Command<\/strong>, a U.S. Space Force field command, for the VICTUS HAZE Tactically Responsive Space (TacRS) mission, which has a goal of demonstrating and proving how commercial capabilities can be used for future TacRS operations all while further enabling dynamic space operations.<\/p>\n In addition to the propulsion components, Agile will provide propellent logistics services including procurement, handling, and spacecraft fuel-loading for the Jackal AOV that True Anomaly will launch as part of the VICTUS HAZE demonstration in 2025. <\/p>\n \u201cPropulsion is at the heart of Jackal\u2019s unique capabilities,\u201d said True Anomaly CEO & Co-Founder Even Rogers<\/strong>. \u201cAgile\u2019s hardware gives Jackal propulsive capability that has simply not been seen before in a spacecraft of this size. By combining efficiency and high thrust, we will empower operators with the agility needed to succeed in the demanding space environment.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cBoth Agile and True Anomaly are investing in the mission\u2014it\u2019s a true collaboration,\u201d said Agile CEO Chris Pearson.<\/strong> \u201cThe hardware being brought to market will benefit the wider space economy and is enabled by Agile\u2019s strategic investments in advanced additive manufacturing and vertically integrated propulsion test capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Agile Space Industries announced that it is providing advanced propulsion technology for a variant of True Anomaly\u2019s Jackal autonomous orbital vehicle (AOV).
