The T1TRK program is designed to provide global warning and tracking of conventional and advanced missile threats, including hypersonic missile systems.<\/p>\n<p>Maxar\u2019s inaugural Maxar 300 series bus is designed for eight or more space vehicles per launch while delivering the demanding low jitter and high power required for the missile defense mission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe designed the Maxar 300 series platform to be quickly scalable,\u201d said Chris Johnson, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Space at Maxar. \u201cThe team completed CDR just ten months from the award, and we\u2019re on schedule to begin production of our platforms later this year with initial deliveries in early 2024. Our customers need speed and agility while ensuring a superior technical product, and that\u2019s what Maxar\u2019s commercial experience can deliver.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The comprehensive review examined the new system&#8217;s principal elements, including structural design, power, attitude control, command, and data handling. Maxar will build 16 platforms for the T1TRK program, each about the width of a conventional oven. Those dimensions help the SDA achieve its goals to significantly reduce the size, weight, power, and cost compared to traditional missile detection satellites. The SDA mission will also adapt and extend Maxar\u2019s deep commercial communications satellite experience for new uses.<\/p>\n<p>Designed, engineered, and built in-house in California, the Maxar 300 buses are modular platforms that benefit from the company\u2019s decades of experience building more than 90 spacecraft for low Earth orbit. Both the platform and Maxar\u2019s production capacity are scalable, with the ability to address multiple missions with flexible production rates that meet delivery timelines.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to learn about Satellite Platforms from various manufacturers listed on SATNow.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maxar Technologies, a provider of comprehensive space solutions and secure, precise, geospatial intelligence, completed the first Critical Design Review (CDR) of the Maxar 300 series bus for L3Harris Technologies in support of the Space Development Agency\u2019s Tranche 1 Tracking Layer (T1TRK) program.
