Taurus Space Achieves FMN Spiral 4 Alignment, Paving the Way for Coalition Interoperability

SAN DIEGO, CA – Taurus Space today announced a major milestone in its interoperability roadmap: its Command & Control (C2) architecture is now fully aligned with Federated Mission Networking (FMN) Spiral 4 specifications. This alignment signifies that Taurus Space systems are ready to integrate seamlessly into the Mission Partner Environment (MPE), enabling immediate data sharing across coalition forces.

In an era where the future of defense is defined not just by connectivity, but by federation, this update moves beyond proprietary data silos. By adhering to these rigorous international standards, Taurus Space ensures that its space domain insights can be instantly consumed and acted upon by allied partners without complex integration hurdles.

Standards-Based Integration

The updated architecture natively integrates two critical protocols:

NFFI (NATO Friendly Force Information): Ensures ground and air tactical data is shared using the standardized language of the NATO alliance.

STANAG 4917: The standard for Space Domain Awareness, allowing critical orbital data to flow directly into the coalition's common operating picture.

Building for the Federated Future

“In modern multi-domain operations, the most critical asset isn’t the platform—it’s the network. But true interoperability requires more than just shared cables; it requires shared standards, shared semantics, and a shared operating picture,” said Niosha Kayhani, CEO of Taurus Space.

“Maturity in defense tech means building systems that don't just work in a vacuum, but work for the coalition. By aligning with FMN Spiral 4, we are delivering a node that is ready to plug-and-play into the Mission Partner Environment from Day 1. We are proudly building for the federated future.”

This development reinforces Taurus Space’s commitment to breaking down barriers between the commercial space sector and international defense requirements, ensuring that vital data reaches the decision-makers who need it, regardless of their specific national network.
