EDA and Space

EDA as EU stakeholder in Space• Contributes to European Space Policy

EDA Capability Development Plan (2011 Update)• Space now listed

EDA supports both Union and Member States• Intergovernmental approach

EDA, ESA, EUSC, OCCAr, NATO are complementary• EDA to focus on policy and early stages of programmes• EDA now seats in various instances

Pooling & Sharing (P&S)

Ministers putting pressure now to pool & share (P&S) Defence assets

• Financial crisis keep going… how to mitigate cuts?

SATCOM on top of list of capabilities to P&S• Ministers have noted and endorsed SATCOM as

promising area to investigate• All EDA work strands are compliant

European SatCom Procurement Cell (ESCPC)

ESCPC “Quick-win of Pooling and Sharing”Aim: Establish a “Pilot” Cell within EDA in 2012 -14 to

centralise commercial SatCom procurement • by pooling national needs (from €1 to €10 million p.a.)

Milestones:• 2005-07: studies; 09 project launch; Q1 2012: operations• Ad Hoc Project “B” (FR, IT, PL, RO, UK)• Project Arrangement being signed in Dec 2011

Way ahead• Better Business Case by extension to other pMS and 3rd

Parties (military, civil, states, organizations)• Handover entity for long term operations (2015+)• Extension of the Catalogue to Military SATCOM services

MILSATCOM in Europe today – Background

• Fragmentation and duplication of assets• Expensive but strategic asset for space-faring nations• 5 stove-piped systems, no synergies in requirements, R&T, acquisition

Opportunity: next generation to be launched in 2020.• Preparatory activities: bilateral joint concept studies by FR-UK “Future SATCOM” initiative• Acquisition time: 5 years. Preparatory activities: 3 years. Time to start SECTELSAT: 2012.

No P&S

Payload mix: national assured access + P&S of transponders

1. Sovereignty SATCOM - national exclusive, secure command & control of satellites

2. Resilient SATCOM – Military-grade hardened Comms for strategic links (selective Pooling)

3. Guaranteed SATCOM – long term lease of transponders (assured capacity) (massive Pooling)

4. General Access (Sharing) “MilSatCom One-Stop-Shop” – short term lease of transponders
