The U.S. Space Force awarded Rocket Lab a $397 million contract to build, launch, and operate next-generation "Flatellites" for the Space-Based Airborne Moving Target Indicator (SB-AMTI) program.
The deal marks a major milestone for the company, shifting its role from a small rocket launcher into an end-to-end defense prime contractor.
What the Program MeansTracking from Orbit: The SB-AMTI program moves traditional airborne threat and moving-target tracking (historically done by vulnerable aircraft like AWACS) safely into space.Real-time Awareness: The network of satellites will detect and persistently track airborne threats in contested environments where surveillance planes cannot safely fly.
What Rocket Lab Will DoBuild Flatellites: Manufacture specialized, flat-packed satellites optimized to fly in large constellations with high-bandwidth sensors.Launch on Neutron: Fly the hardware using Rocket Lab's upcoming medium-lift Neutron rocket.Operate the Fleet: Run the mission operations and stream tactical data directly back to the U.S. Space Force
