Today, we’re spotlighting Josh Bettinger and our Federal Division.
Since being awarded a contract with the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) in 2023, the PPS Federal Division has been serving as the prime contractor in supporting the ongoing mission at Cape Canaveral for the NRO. We are proud to be providing mission-critical infrastructure upgrades as part of our Space Coast efforts.
Earlier this month, the NRO, in conjunction with the United Launch Alliance and the U.S. Space Force launched the historic final mission of our nation’s DELTA IV Heavy rocket at Cape Canaveral. The pinnacle in the Delta family evolution, it was a workhorse for the NRO, launching 12 missions delivering critical national security payloads.
This final Delta mission signals the United Launch Alliance’s evolution to the new Vulcan rocket, providing even higher performance than our three-core Delta IV Heavy rocket in a single-core rocket to launch heavy-class missions for the nation.
PPS’ Federal Division applauds the ULA and the U.S. Space Force, along with everyone involved in this historic send-off.
