• The Space Force aims to reduce testing requirements and cut the time for testing and validation.
• The service seeks to deliver systems with 'minimum viable capability' that can be incrementally improved.
• The goal is to deliver capability quickly, but with a focus on operational effectiveness.
• The Space Force needs to balance speed with the need for a minimum viable capability that meets warfighter needs.
• The service is considering a new mindset for testing and fielding, focusing on acceptance rather than assurance.

The Space Force's acquisition reform efforts may suggest a shift towards prioritizing speed and operational effectiveness over perfection. This could have implications for the development of space-based systems, as well as the broader defense industry. However, it's unclear how the service will balance the need for rapid delivery with the need for a minimum viable capability that meets warfighter needs. Could this approach lead to a new era of incremental development and deployment of space-based systems?
