In its regulatory filings, Gravitics describes the Orbital Carrier in explicit military terms, saying the platform is being developed to support rapid-response and counterspace operations in Earth orbit and cislunar space. The company describes the capability as central to achieving what the Space Force calls space superiority. Gravitics is separately developing Viper OTX, a maneuverable orbital-transfer vehicle that could be carried aboard the larger platform and dispatched to transport payloads to other orbits. https://spacenews.com/gravitics-to-build-orbital-carriers-for-space-based-missile-defense/
