Space GARAGE: Space Global Asset Resupply and Gear Enhancement

AMC/A4’s current global cargo delivery methods are costly, rely on the availability of aircraft, require coordinating refueling with tankers and can take days to weeks to deliver mission critical cargo around the world which creates a challenge for efficient operations. With China and Russia continuing to increase aggression in the Indo-Pacific and European regions, the USAF will need to prioritize capabilities that can deter aggression and help the U.S. maintain a strategic position in contested environments. Maj Gen Sanford has a priority to supply the warfighter with timely logistics and supports the concept of using orbital transportation to accelerate global delivery of cargo with Outpost.In this Phase II effort Outpost will develop Space GARAGE, based on the Outpost Ferryall satellite which enables the precise and timely delivery of point-to-point logistics via Earth re-entry. The commercially developed Ferryall satellite is one-fifth scale of the Outpost Carryall. The Space GARAGE design will be based on the Ferryall to design and develop the Carryall system for DAF and DoD mission requirements. A STRATFI or Phase III will be utilized to bring the larger Ferryall variant, capable of delivering 5 Tons of payload, to TRL 9, and mission operations.
