US Space Force Approves S2E2 Missile Warning Ground System

The US Space Force has granted operational acceptance for the Survivable Endurable Evolution (S2E2), a next-generation ground system supporting missile threat detection.

S2E2 replaces the 1960s-era Mobile Ground System, originally built to support the Defense Support Program, with a modern, transportable station.

It processes data from the Space Based Infrared System (SBIRS) satellite network and the nuclear detonation (NUDET) detection system, enhancing survivability and resilience in contested and degraded environments.

“S2E2 will deliver the first-ever high data rate missile warning messages, enabling faster and more detailed transmission of critical data,” said Capt. Morgan Records, deputy program manager for the Space Systems Command Infrastructure Branch.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
