摘要

In what might be one of four pilot programs in commercial satellite capacity procurement outlined by a senior Pentagon official, the U.S. Air Force on March 7 issued a draft bid solicitation to operators interested in providing bandwidth on an aging satellite to support military needs in Africa. In a draft request for proposals posted on the Federal Business Opportunities website, Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center said it was interested in leasing a geostationary-orbiting satellite for the remainder of its life to support U.S. Africa Command. The satellite would be in a fuel-saving inclined orbit, meaning not stabilized on its north-south axis, and typical of geostationary-orbiting satellites nearing the end of their service lives. Inclined-orbit satellites are of limited utility for many applications but can support airborne surveillance activities and short-term surge requirements, industry sources said.
