Space-Based Interceptors for Boost-Phase Missile Defense in the Endo-Atmospheric Region

The U.S. Space Force is seeking technologies to develop space-based interceptors that can stop missiles during the boost phase while they are still within the atmosphere (below 120 km). The focus is on compact, high-performance systems that enable rapid, precise, and survivable intercepts from space.

Key priorities:

High-G propulsion systems suitable for rapid endo-atmosphe…
