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.
