Space and Security (CSDP) – EU Space Policy• Council Conclusions, 1-Jun-2011, art. 17
- “INVITES the Commission, in close collaboration with Member States and after consultation with ESA and EDA to evaluate the need for improvements of the available space infrastructure to develop secure services based on the integration of global satellite communications, earth observation and positioning”…
• Space Council Orientations, 6-Dec-2011, art. 22- RECOGNIZES that SATCOM represent a key capability in any
crisis response and crisis management operation, and a highly crucial and scarce resource, especially when ground infrastructures are damaged or destroyed, and RECOMMENDS the European Commission, EEAS and Member States, with the support of EDA, to work towards a secure and guaranteed access to commercial and governmental satellite communications for crisis response and crisis management actors;

Space Policy – EDA Role
• Space is a shared competence (EU/MS)
• EDA as a ‘SPACE hub’ (forum) for SATCOM, SSA, ISR- Requirements collection, cooperative projects and programmes- Research activities, technological demonstrators
• EDA support on GNSS, EO, Space R&T- Galileo PRS, EO calibration, critical space technologies for European non-
dependence
• Task Force on Civil-Military Synergies
• EDA-ESA Cooperation (Administrative Arrangement)- Case#1: SATCOM for UAS Command & Control Demonstration- Case#2: ISR (Capability Package Assessment) - Case#3: SATCOM infrastructure (ETISC, SECTELSAT work strands)
(Developed in next slides)

SATCOM Pooling & Sharing (P&S)EU MoD initiative
• EU Member States are putting pressure to P&S Defence assets- Lower budgets… how to mitigate?
• EDA Steering Board, 30 Nov 2011 identified SATCOM to P&S- Ministers have endorsed a list,
incl. ESCPC and Future MILSATCOM
• SATCOM- EDA is setting up projects in line
with political guidance• ESCPC• SECTELSAT (Future
MILSATCOM)

European SatCom Procurement Cell (ESCPC)
• ESCPC overcomes fragmented procurement of commercial SATCOM within European Defence- Establish a “Pilot” Cell within EDA (2012 -
2014)
• Milestones: - 2009 project launch approval by EU MoDs- Q2 2012: operations
• Instrument (legal basis):- “Ad Hoc” Project (FR, IT, PL, RO, UK)- More Member States, EU, 3rd party
• ESCPC major benefits:- Flexible: ‘’Pay-Per-Use”, non-exclusive
sourcing- Economical: No membership fees, VAT-
free

Military Satellite Communication (MILSATCOM)Window of opportunity in 2012-2015
• End of life of European current MILSATCOM assets : around 2020
• Window of opportunity will not show again before 15-20 years
• Decisions to be taken within the next 2 years

MILSATCOM in 2012: segregated assets
NSP2K CapabilityPackage (2003-2017)
• 10+ different satellites for 5 separate, almost dedicated systems
• Risk: duplication of R&T investments, of operating costs, etc.
• So far very little Pooling & Sharing achieved, made by NATO.
EU does not have its Capability Package
Other MS have no access to MILSATCOM

MILSATCOM in 2020: EDA Concept of Secure Telecom by Satellite (SECTELSAT)
• Common requirements• Civil-Military R&T investments• Coordinated acquisition• P&S of assets and operations

Pooling & Sharing (P&S) Benefits: “cross-use” of SATCOM, EU-wide
Synergies: >1 billion €
P&S between existing ‘MILSATCOM’ nations

EDA & European Space – The Take-Away
• EDA as the Hub for Defence… and Space- Duality (for/by defence and security)
• EDA-ESA Cooperation (Administrative Arrangement)
• Space in the EDA Capability Development Plan (CDP)
• SATCOM twice in the EU Defence Pooling & Sharing- ESCPC as a ‘Quick-Win’ (commercial SATCOM)- Governmental SATCOM: EDA concept ‘Secure Telecom by
Satellite’
• EDA Member States: it’s all about political BUY-IN.
