The vertical scale does not start at zero: the baseline sits just below this program’s smallest year, so a low point on this line is not a small amount. Read the shape for direction and the grid below for the figures.
● actuals (line) · ○ enacted · ◇ request — gaps are editions the program is absent from, never interpolated.

Asked vs spent: the PB2023 book requested $58.0M for FY2023; the PB2025 book reported $48.6M as actual total obligation authority — $9.39M below the request. 48.6 − 58.0 = -9.4 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description
Mission — Space Control Technology
This program supports a range of activities including systems engineering, technology planning, development, demonstrations and prototyping, and testing, as well as modeling, simulations and exercises to support development and maturation of tactics and procedures for a responsive and resilient Space Control mission area. This includes technology development and prototyping for Defensive Counterspace (DCS) and Offensive Counterspace (OCS) and the necessary systems engineering for the warfighter to effectively employ such systems. Specifically supported are DCS and Space Domain Awareness (SDA) activities, which include developing threat warning payloads for monitoring, detecting, identifying, tracking, assessing, verifying, categorizing, and characterizing objects and events in space. Additionally, Integration and Technology Futures project supports the development of payload prototypes and space defense force packages for protecting U.S. space systems, resources, and operations from enemy attempts to negate, interfere, or destroy them. Specific OCS activities include disruption, denial, or degradation (and associated Electronic Support) of adversary space systems that may be used for purposes hostile to U.S. national security interests. Rapid Reaction Capabilities in response to immediate warfighter needs in the Space Control mission area are developed within the Rapid Reaction Branch (RRB). Depending on the magnitude of Combatant Command Urgent Operational Needs (UON), this program may not include necessary funding for all contingency deployments. As required, necessary funding will be requested through established Joint Urgent Operational Need (JUON) and Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) processes. Joint Space Integration Technology leverages knowledge of the space environment and impacts on weapon systems to prototype, develop, test, and field joint multi-domain software and modeling solutions to fill capability gaps for Combatant Commanders. Military Application of the Space Environment (MASE) project consolidates and integrates current space environment science and technology advancements to provide capability for joint force systems in all domains to address immediate and evolving threats to U.S. forces operating in harm's way. The data provided supports rapid and agile demonstrations, exercises, and war games that provide essential validation of delivered capabilities to improve operational effectiveness. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver SCT weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 1206392SF and 1206398SF. This effort is in Budget Activity 4, Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P), because efforts are necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative modes or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.
Mission — Technology Insertion Planning and Analysis
This program supports a range of activities including systems engineering, technology planning, development, demonstrations and prototyping, and testing, as well as modeling, simulations and exercises to support development and maturation of tactics and procedures for responsive and resilient Space Superiority capabilities. This includes technology development and prototyping for Offensive and Defensive Space Operations and the necessary systems engineering for the warfighter to effectively employ such systems. Specifically supported are Defensive Space Operations(DSO) and Space Domain Awareness (SDA) activities, which include developing threat warning payloads for monitoring, detecting, identifying, tracking, assessing, verifying, categorizing, and characterizing objects and events in space. Additionally, Integration and Technology Futures project supports the development of payload prototypes and space defense force packages for protecting U.S. space systems, resources, and operations from enemy attempts to negate, interfere, or destroy them. Specific Offensive Space Operations (OSO) include disruption, denial, or degradation (and associated Electronic Support) of adversary space systems that may be used for purposes hostile to U.S. national security interests. Rapid Reaction Capabilities in response to immediate warfighter needs in the Space Superiority mission area are developed within the Rapid Reaction Branch (RRB). Depending on the magnitude of Combatant Command Urgent Operational Needs (UON), this program may not include necessary funding for all contingency deployments. As required, necessary funding will be requested through established Joint Urgent Operational Need (JUON) and Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) processes. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver SCT weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 1206392SF and 1206398SF. For Technology Insertion Planning and Analysis in FY 2025 $0.200 million was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY 2026 $0.200 million is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element.
Mission — Joint Space Integration Technology
Joint Space Integration Technology leverages knowledge of the space environment and impacts on weapon systems to prototype, develop, test, and field joint multi-domain software and modeling solutions to fill capability gaps for Combatant Commanders. Military Application of the Space Environment (MASE) project consolidates and integrates current space environment science and technology advancements to provide capability for joint force systems in all domains to address immediate and evolving threats to U.S. forces operating in harm's way.

The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 1206392SF and 1206398SF.
Justification
Accomplishments & Planned Programs (3)
Rapid Reaction Branch
Develops advanced capabilities for rapid prototyping and integration into space control programs of record and, if requested, to warfighter UONs and JUONs. Conducts prototype capability development, testing, training and rapid transition of technology and techniques to space control systems. Sustains deployed quick reaction capabilities until transition to program of record or mission completion.
Integration and Technology Futures
Foundational architecture development to enable the integration, interoperability and compatibility of new Space Control Technology into space systems. Funds modeling, analysis, and systems engineering services support to meet space control mission requirements.
Military Application of the Space Environment (MASE)
The goal, mission and purpose of the Military Application of the Space Environment (MASE) Program is to design, develop, and field a decision aid to support air and maritime scheme of maneuver in a battlespace and satisfy the needs of multiple combatant commanders, service components, and the intelligence community. MASE provides commanders an operational risk assessment tool to improve air and maritime campaign mission effectiveness. Develops, tests, and delivers weapon system tailored visualizations/decision aids supporting operational level mission planning and tactical execution.
