In 2021, we established the Space Warfighting Analysis Center (SWAC) as a pivotal force in shaping our space acquisitions strategy. The SWAC’s primary objective is to develop and deliver authoritative Force Design guidance to the USSF. These activities performed by SWAC are part of a larger capabilities development ecosystem that encompasses requirements generation, streamlined governance, unity of effort across acquisitions, and integrated test and evaluation.
