Dr Kelly Hammett has moved from the Space Rapid Capabilities Office to the Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center, where he is now executive director at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico.
The Air Force says Hammett, a member of the Senior Executive Service, had been dual-hatted as director and program executive officer for the Space Rapid Capabilities Office before the reassignment. The change comes as that office is being realigned under the Space Force, leaving another senior acquisition post in flux.
No replacement has been named and no transition timetable has been disclosed. The move adds another leadership shift to the Space Force’s ongoing acquisition reorganisation.
