Systems Delta 85 (SYD 85) is a unit of the United States Space Force (USSF) that was activated on August 8, 2025.[1] The USSF says SYD 85 is focused on battle-space awareness, battle management and space access[2]. The unit monitors space for threats and operational safety, tracks potential missiles, defends against missiles and manages space intelligence.[3] Col. Jason West assumed command of the unit as its first leader. The Delta is stationed at Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colorado and is a subordinate to the Space Systems Command. It is the fifth system delta of the USSF.[4] SYD 85 is part of the USSF's new structure to consolidate acquisition and support SpOC Mission Deltas.[5]
