SBIRS [short for Space Based Infrared System], considered one of the nation's highest-priority space programs, is designed to provide global, persistent, infrared surveillance capabilities to meet 21st-century demands in four national security mission areas, including: missile warning, missile defense, technical intelligence and battlespace awareness," ULA representatives wrote in a mission description.

The first SBIRS Geo satellite launched in 2011, and SBIRS Geo-2 reached orbit in 2013.
