“We want to move away from those big, fat, juicy targets, where it just takes one shot and you’re blind and deaf,” said Steve Isakowitz, Aerospace president and CEO.

He pointed to ongoing Space Force efforts to adopt commercial space technology and incorporate it into more distributed architectures. “I think there’s a sense of urgency in terms of addressing that,” he said. “It’s being driven by the threat and that the quickest way we can get additional capability in space and be more resilient is with commercial technologies.”
