Prior to delivery of the first payload, Raytheon completed a series of assessments including thermal vacuum testing. Thermal vacuum testing exposes the payload to a space-like environment and validates digital models to ensure the sensor meets design requirements. The second sensor payload is more than 60 percent completed and is scheduled to start thermal vacuum testing in early 2025.RTX's Raytheon Delivered Its First Sensor Payload To Prime Contractor Lockheed Martin, Keeping The U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command's First Next-Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared, Or Next-Gen OPIR GEO Block 0 Missile Warning Satellite On Track For A 2025 Initial Launch Capability

EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Raytheon, an RTX (NYSE:RTX) business, delivered its first sensor payload to prime contractor Lockheed Martin, keeping the U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command's first Next-Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared, or Next-Gen OPIR, Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO) Block 0 missile warning satellite on track for a 2025 initial launch capability.
加利福尼亚州埃尔塞贡多，2024年9月30日 /PRNewswire/ — RTX（纽约证券交易所代码：RTX）旗下的雷神向主承包商洛克希德·马丁公司交付了其第一枚传感器有效载荷，使美国太空部队太空系统司令部的第一颗下一代高架永久红外线或下一代OPIR地球同步轨道（GEO）Block 0导弹警报卫星步入2025年的初始发射能力。
Designed to improve missile warning resilience and performance, two Next-Gen OPIR GEO satellites will eventually provide continuous coverage over mid-latitudes to the existing constellation. Raytheon is designing and building sensor payloads for both satellites.
两颗下一代OPIR GEO卫星旨在提高导弹预警弹性和性能，最终将为现有星座提供中纬度的持续覆盖。雷神正在为这两颗卫星设计和建造传感器有效载荷。

Thermal vacuum testing exposes the payload to a space-like environment and validates digital models to ensure the sensor meets design requirements. The second sensor payload is more than 60 percent completed and is scheduled to start thermal vacuum testing in early 2025.
在交付第一批有效载荷之前，雷神完成了一系列评估，包括热真空测试。热真空测试将有效载荷暴露在类似太空的环境中，并验证数字模型以确保传感器符合设计要求。第二个传感器有效载荷已完成60％以上，计划于2025年初开始热真空测试。
