Space Operations Command

Welcome to 2025! We're excited to build on the successes of 2024, as we continue to #BuildOnAndBuildOut, forging combat-ready space forces for America and our Allies. And as always, a shout-out to our Guardians and Airmen who have worked through the holidays. We appreciate you! United States Space Force #USSpaceForce #SemperSupra #USSF5

SpOC Year in Review: This year, SpOC has implemented the “ready” phase of SPAFORGEN, which mandates semi-annual training periods for crews of space operators, allowing them to participate in exercises they might not be able to take part in when working shifts for day-to-day operations. The “ready” phase allows Guardians to participate in advanced training designed to equip them for high-intensity conflict in a low-threat environment. “Posturing to deter and win in conflict must remain our overriding purpose!,” said SpOC Commander, Lt. Gen. David N. Miller Jr..

SpOC Year in Review: This year, SpOC redesignated three Space deltas as mission deltas: MD31, MD2, MD3, and MD4. The mission delta model merges operational activities of deltas with sustainment capabilities, as well as integrates intelligence support directly into the unit. This merger allows for more unified mission readiness, providing deltas with the capabilities to readily acquire the tools and support they may need.

SpOC Year in Review: In October, SpOC hosted the first U.S. Space Force Global Force Management Sourcing Conference, which brought together component field commands, Space Force leadership, field commands, mission area teams, and Allies and partners to communicate requirements to influence the United States Space Force's force generation, prioritization, and sourcing activities.

SpOC Year in Review: This year marked the 4th anniversary of SpOC’s establishment. On Oct. 21, 2020, SpOC became the United States Space Force’s first field command; it took on the mission to secure our nation’s interests in, from, and to Space that our Guardians and Airmen still proudly follow today.

SpOC Year in Review: In March, United States Space Force’s Col. Nick Hague, NASA astronaut, visited Buckley Space Force base ahead of his August Crew-9 launch, which made him the first Space Force officer to launch beyond Earth’s atmosphere. The purpose of his visit was to get a better understanding of the capabilities the Space Force provides NASA that make human space flight possible. “NASA depends on the entire mission set that the Space Force helps provide,” said Hague.

SpOC Year in Review: In August, Chief Master Sgt Caleb Lloyd, Space Operations Command senior enlisted leader, spoke on SPAFORGEN at the Air Force Sergeants' Association Summit. He explained how the SPAFORGEN model is instrumental in achieving combat readiness and addressing any emerging threats by developing Guardian and Airman expertise in intelligence, cyberspace operations, space system operations, engineering, and sustainment activities.

SpOC Year in Review: In 2024, we introduced the United States Space Force’s new Space Force Generation (SPAFORGEN) readiness model to streamline Guardian and Airman Development. SpOC commander Lt. Gen. David N. Miller and Space Forces Space (S4S) commander Lt. Gen. Douglas A. Schiess teamed up to explain why SPAFORGEN is so critical to meet the current challenges of Great Power Competition.

SpOC Year in Review: In June, we welcomed the U.S. Army’s Joint Tactical Ground Station missile warning systems (JTAGS) into the SpOC family as a part of Mission Delta 4. The transfer of these capabilities allows for alignment of all Department of Defense missile warning systems under a single military service branch.

SpOC Year in Review: This year, SpOC focused its efforts on building its Guardian and Airman Development Program (GADP). The program provides systematic and progressive training opportunities to meet the developmental needs of our Guardians and Airmen. The intent is to give our NCOs the tools to develop as leaders and supervisors, empowering them to make informed decisions while also providing them with a critical support system.
