Air Force Space Command What We Do
• Space• Provide Joint warfighting space capabilities• Acquire space systems• Provide assured access to space• Assured capabilities across the spectrum
• Cyberspace• Present full spectrum capabilities for the Joint
warfighter in, through and from cyberspace• Extend, operate and defend the AF portion of the
DoD Network• Establish requirements for future cyberspace
systems/capabilities • Assured capabilities across the spectrum

How do we reach the future
• Innovate: deliver resilient, cost-effective capabilities to the warfighter
• Evolve: requirements/acquisition processes• Fund: must identify and fund the true needs

• Connection• The innovator: industry, academia, or our own come up with the
good ideas• “Ideas” go through HQ AFSPC Innovation Forum• AFSPC Entry point is Livelink Innovation Webpage (
• Competency• Technical experts vet possibilities• Staff work with idea generator
• Champion• Periodic Senior Forum established to review “ideas”• Senior-level advocacy then assignment to Center/lab• Follows Public Law/DoD 5000 series processes but with better input

Funding Impacts
• President’s direction to cut ~$487B over 10 years• Ongoing debt ceiling negotiations likely to drive further
funding reductions across DoD• AFSPC will continue to support the Core Function Master
Plan strategy:• Ensure continuity of critical capabilities in support of national and
joint requirements• Modernize or improve cyberspace and space capabilities using
technically feasible and fiscally sound strategies• Leverage partnerships or rely on commercial capabilities when
beneficial to DoD

Cyber OperationsChallenges and Opportunities
• Challenges• Assured information protection• Legacy capabilities oriented toward detection vice prevention• Timely awareness/characterization of potential threats• DoD acquisition processes, while improved, are still slow to need• Increase operational cost to attacker while lowering the benefit
• Industry Opportunities• Develop hardened/defensible/reliable AF networks leveraging
current technologies, architectures and resources • Provide proactive capabilities to actively prevent cyber threats• Fuse cyber data to create actionable information and assure AF
missions• Leverage existing/future Cyber Acquisitions process to deliver
best value

Cyber WarfareChallenges and Opportunities
• Challenges• Funding
• Growing mission area vs. shrinking budgets (i.e., Budget Control Act)
• Qualification Training• Demand increasing faster than throughput
• Intel support to cyber program development• Normalize cyber intelligence requirements and prioritize
support
• Industry Opportunities• Cyberspace domain continues to change at “light speed”
• Must be able to keep up with new technology• Transition of “tools” to “capabilities”

Launch RangesChallenges and Opportunities
• Challenges• Aging infrastructure and fiscal constraints present operations and
sustainment challenges; instrument reliability opposed to excessive redundancy
• Variety of non-standard launch systems driven by diverse customer needs • Real-time data receive, processing and display drive costs for robust systems
with a “no-fail” design• Multiple independent contracts for operations at each range, plus overarching
sustainment – drives contract overhead costs for all contracts
• Industry Opportunities• Propose range safety strategy that does not require significant investment on
the range or from launch customers; solutions that require significant capital investment on the range or launch customers are a non-starter
• Propose efficiencies in day-to-day operations and sustainment of range infrastructure (current and future as mentioned above) using a single consolidated contract
