1 Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems Non-ITAR Data 1 GPS IIF Program Update National Space-Based PNT Advisory Board Presented by Mr. Ken Torok V.P. Navigation and Communications Systems Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems October 14, 2010 1

2 Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems Non-ITAR Data 2 Boeing – 35+ Year GPS Mission Partner Boeing has provided 40 of the 61 GPS satellites launched Block I First Launch: 22 Feb 78 11 Vehicles ( Average life 2x specified ) Block II/IIA Block IIF First Launch: 27 May 2010 12 Vehicles ( 12 year design life ) Deployed: 2007 First Launch: 14 Feb 89 28 Vehicles ( Average life 2x specified and counting) Operational Control Segment

3 Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems Non-ITAR Data 3 GPS IIF Space Vehicle (SV) Mission  Provide Precise Global PNT Signals for Military, Commercial, and Civil Users  Space-based radio-positioning with high availability and high assurance  Global Nuclear Detection payload GPS IIF Space Vehicle (SV) Mission  Provide Precise Global PNT Signals for Military, Commercial, and Civil Users  Space-based radio-positioning with high availability and high assurance  Global Nuclear Detection payload Mission Benefits  Ensures global service availability  Provides secure, higher power jam-resistant Military operations  Improves accuracy to < 0.5m (predicted)  New robust civil signals for operational diversity  Reprogrammable to meet future security needs Mission Benefits  Ensures global service availability  Provides secure, higher power jam-resistant Military operations  Improves accuracy to < 0.5m (predicted)  New robust civil signals for operational diversity  Reprogrammable to meet future security needs GPS IIF Overview GPS Control Segment Mission  Modernized GPS command and control  Operate entire 24+ satellite constellation  Perform satellite launch, anomaly, and disposal operations GPS Control Segment Mission  Modernized GPS command and control  Operate entire 24+ satellite constellation  Perform satellite launch, anomaly, and disposal operations Mission Benefits  Sub-meter accuracy  Simultaneous sorties and theatres  Military anti-spoofing capability (2009)  Increases operator efficiency and military responsiveness  Foundation for new capabilities as available Mission Benefits  Sub-meter accuracy  Simultaneous sorties and theatres  Military anti-spoofing capability (2009)  Increases operator efficiency and military responsiveness  Foundation for new capabilities as available Non-ITAR Data

4 Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems Non-ITAR Data 4 IIF-1 (SVN 62) Launched and Operational  Mission Assurance focus  Successfully completed on-orbit check-out and entered service ● Set healthy August 26, 2010  1 st operational L5 signal ● Unit, environmental, and on-orbit tests demonstrate meeting requirements  Best clock performance to-date ● Rubidium Frequency Standard 24 hour frequency stability is best in the constellation ● Improving with continued on-orbit aging Positions program to deliver 11 more satellites for constellation sustainment

5 Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems Non-ITAR Data 5 GPS IIF Performance – Control Segment  Architecture Evolution Plan (AEP) ● Controlling the entire GPS constellation ● Successfully added new IIF and SAASM (security) capabilities ● Efficient sustainment team and processes in place  Launch, early orbit, Anomaly resolution & Disposal Operations (LADO) ● Supporting GPS operations (IIA, IIR, IIR/M, IIF) ● Sustainment in progress  SV-2 launch preparations under way Continuous, global military and civil service since entering operations in 2007

6 Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems Non-ITAR Data 6 Low Risk SV-2 through SV-12 Production  Design proven via on-orbit performance ● Successfully completed checkout; now in service ● Ready to support future launches with routine software updates  IIF-2 on schedule to support next launch ● Vehicle fully assembled; environmental testing complete in October ● Forecast shipment to launch site Jan 2011 ● Target launch by Summer 2011  IIF-3 fully assembled; starting environmental testing  IIF-4 fully assembled; starting initial testing  IIF-5 has entered pulse line; starting vehicle assembly Proven IIF production supports constellation sustainment launch needs IIFs in Pulse Line

7 Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems Non-ITAR Data 7 GPS IIF Pulse Line Production Approach  Company investment in dedicated GPS satellite facilities  Best practices in lean production from across Boeing  Production approach designed to maximize benefits of learning ● Schedule and cost estimates incorporate expected benefits of this learning  Active production line and supply chain  Rate of 4 per year provides margin to meet launch rate and future need Establishes reliable production schedules while ensuring product quality

8 Boeing Space & Intelligence Systems Non-ITAR Data 8 GPS IIF Space Vehicle Summary  Most capable GPS satellite in history ● Highest power, most accurate navigation signal ● Most robust military signal ● First operational L5 signal ● Longer on-orbit life ● Ability to evolve/add future mission capabilities (reprogrammable processor)  IIF-1 performance demonstrated on-orbit ● Successful mission ● Best performance in the constellation  Assured sustainment of the constellation  Mission Assurance emphasis  Pulse line in place to ensure timely, quality delivery IIFs will provide backbone of the GPS constellation for the next 15-to-18 years
