Classification:  TOP SECRET//SI/TK//NOFORN//

Purpose:  The USSF SWAC develops Force Designs for USSF mission areas through a rigorous analytical process.  A Force Design describes how the USSF envisions modernizing the force to provide the space effects the Joint Force and our Nation require in the future operating environment.  Force Designs are grounded in peer-reviewed analysis using contemporary digital modeling tools and simulation environments.  The SWAC is applying a Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) approach to system and architecture description that enables system, architecture, concept design assessments, and affordability analysis throughout the Force Design life-cycle.  USSF desires to communicate Force Design overviews to industry so industry has a better perspective on how USSF mission areas are evolving.  A Business Fair provides a forum for the USSF to communicate Force Design objectives and models to industry.  In doing so, industry will have access to Force Design overviews to potentially guide internal investments and be able to communicate with USSF from a consistent MBSE-based Force Design frame of reference.
