Space Base Delta 2 (SBD 2) is a unit in the United States Space Force. It is assigned to Space Operations Command and headquartered at Buckley Space Force Base in Aurora, Colorado, United States.
SBD 2 is responsible for providing installation support functions for the resident air operations, space-based missile warning capabilities, space surveillance operations, and space communications missions at Buckley Space Force Base in Colorado, Cape Cod Space Force Station in Massachusetts, Cavalier Space Force Station in North Dakota, and Clear Space Force Station in Alaska. It also provides Airmen and Guardians that deploy and are deployed in-place, to accomplish warfighting missions globally.[2][3]
The delta hosts six major base partners: Space Delta 4 (Missile Warning Delta), 140th Wing of the Colorado Air National Guard (COANG); the Denver Navy Reserve Center, the Aerospace Data Facility-Colorado, the Army Aviation Support Facility, and the Air Reserve Personnel Center.
The garrison and delta traces its heritage to the 2d Space Wing. Constituted on 5 December 1984 and activated on 8 July 1985, the 2d Space Wing was the host wing at Falcon Air Force Station (later Falcon Air Force Base; now Schriever Air Force Base). It took operational control of the Air Force Satellite Control Network in October 1987. It was inactivated on 30 January 1992 when the 50th Space Wing replaced it.[4]
The 2d Space Wing was redesignated as Buckley Garrison on 23 July 2020. and activated on 24 July 2020 (from elements, personnel, and resources of the 460th Space Wing).[5] On May 23, 2022 Buckley Garrison was redesignated Space Base Delta 2.[3]
Its current commander is Colonel Heidi L. Dexter.
