Space & Amentum Assured Ranges


Amentum is one of the largest U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) Test and Training Range operations, maintenance, engineering sustainment, and integration support solutions providers in the world. Our footprint includes some of the largest and most complex national security programs for the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army, and U.S. Navy.

Amentum also enjoys a unique relationship working side-by-side with the 25th Space Range Squadron/Delta 11 (25 SRS/Delta 11) located at Schriever Space Force Base, Colorado, where we support the National Space Test and Training Complex (NSTTC) and the United States Space Force (USSF). We integrate in all domains for the most advanced multi-domain operations and training solutions.

Space Range Environments


Amentum develops space range environments that assist our Space Warfighters in developing their capabilities and mission effectiveness in a safe training environment. Space capabilities are continuously evolving, requiring our team to seek improvements in our capabilities and procedures to ensure the U.S. remains relevant when preparing to fight in the space domain.

Space Launch Experience


Our 40-year performance as a critical partner to NASA, the U.S. Air & Space Forces, and commercial launch providers has established Amentum as the premier partner to and developer of new capabilities for the space launch industry. Understanding and safely managing the risks of space launch systems has resulted in Amentum successfully supporting over 400 launch events from the Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

Amentum delivers launch operations, sustainment, facilities management, and leverages leading-edge solutions to manage unconventional fuels for commercial and government space launch programs on the following contracts:

  • Propellants and Life Support Services II at Kennedy Space Center, Florida
