Space Launch Complex 2W (SLC-2W)

Space Launch Complex 2 West (SLC-2W) at Vandenberg Space Force Base is Firefly Aerospace’s active West Coast Alpha launch site for polar and sun-synchronous orbit missions. Firefly’s mission archive records Alpha Flight 7 launching from SLC-2 on March 11, 2026, following the 2025 FLTA006 mission and 2024 FLTA005; its current Alpha Payload User’s Guide identifies SLC-2 as supporting high-inclination polar and SSO launches and describes the on-site horizontal integration and payload-processing facilities. The site is a secure military-range launch facility, not a general walk-in visitor attraction; public viewing and base access follow Vandenberg and mission-specific safety guidance.
