It is the sense of Congress that— the new missile track and warning architecture in the budget request of the President for fiscal year 2023 makes a needed and significant shift to a more resilient and robust capability that will be necessary to address future threats in the domain; the tranche 1 and 2 capabilities of the Space Development Agency are critical to such new architecture and should continue to be funded appropriately to deliver missile track and warning capability from low-Earth orbit in the mid-2020s timeframe; section 1645 of the William M.
(Mac)Thornberry National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 ( Public Law 116–283 ; 134 Stat. 4062) directs the Director of the Missile Defense Agency to develop a sensor payload to be integrated into architecture of the Space Development Agency or Space Force to provide fire control quality data that would enable the interception of both ballistic and hypersonic threats; as the Space Warfighting Analysis Center of the Space Force reviews candidate architectures for fire control quality data, the Center should take into account the investment made to date and capability being developed by the hypersonic and ballistic tracking space sensor program for integration into the future architecture; and the Center should also consider current or planned programs of the intelligence community that could be integrated to increase the ability to contribute to fire control architectures of the Department of Defense. In carrying out the analysis of candidate fire control architectures, the Secretary of the Air Force shall ensure that the Director of the Space Warfighting Analysis Center of the Space Force, at a minimum, maintains the requirements needed for the missile defense command and control, battle management, and communications system to pass the needed quality data within the timelines needed for current and planned interceptor systems to support engagements of ballistic and hypersonic threats as described in section 1645 of the William M.
(Mac)Thornberry National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 ( Public Law 116–283 ; 134 Stat. 4062). Not later than 14 days after the date on which the Director of the Space Warfighting Analysis Center concludes the analysis of candidate fire control architectures, the Director shall provide to the Committees on Armed Services of the House of Representatives and the Senate a briefing on the results of the analysis, including the findings of the Director and the architecture recommended by the Director for a future fire control architecture to support engagement of ballistic and hypersonic threats.
