Lockheed Martin Answers Defense Department's Call for ORS Proposals

摘要

Lockheed Martin has submitted several proposals to the Pentagon's Operationally Responsive Space (ORS) program office in response to broad area announcements that office issued in March. Lockheed Martin's proposals are intended to help the ORS office, which is located at Kirt-land Air Force Base in New Mexico, get new capabilities to troops in the field as quickly as possible, according to a company news release dated April 23. The broad agency announcements called for concepts that could help improve the military's capabilities for spacecraft platform and payload technologies; a common satellite platform for low Earth orbit missions; and technology for launch and range systems, according to the news release.
