US Space Force cancels RTX GPS OCX ground-control contract, ending next-gen GPS operational control program
The U.S. Space Force has terminated RTX’s contract for the Next-Generation Operational Control System (OCX), scrapping the long-delayed GPS ground-control network after years of technical issues, schedule slips, and cost overruns. The move follows Pentagon cancellation of the GPS Operational Control Segment, with Lockheed awarded a $105M AEP award.
