"FOO Fighter may be the World War II term for Unidentified Flying Objects, but this is a no kidding, critical mission that will help protect our country and allies against advanced threats," said Jason Kim, CEO of Millennium Space Systems. "And we're bringing invaluable insights from being at the forefront of fielding the intellectual property and technology that will make the FOO Fighter mission a reality."
F2 is designed to enhance the U.S. government's capability for fire-control support across global operations, focusing on detection, warning, and precise tracking of advanced threats, including hypersonic missile systems. The project aims to incorporate fire control-quality sensors within a prototype satellite constellation to demonstrate advanced missile defense capabilities.
"Our deep knowledge and understanding of this mission enabled us to engineer the right solution at the right cost, taking advantage of our common sensing vehicle and core components," said Kim. "The mission engineering we've done is grounded in modeling and simulation exercises, allowing us to understand the payload and its applicability to mission execution."
