The establishment of SWAC was ordered by Chief of Space Operations John W. Raymond.[3] Originally planned as Space Warfighting Integration Center, Vice Chief of Space Operations David D. Thompson was tasked to focus with its establishment upon taking office.[1] Raymond approved the organizational design of SWAC on 8 March 2021.[4] It was activated on 5 April 2021.[5]

SWAC was criticized by the House Committee on Appropriations in a report as being duplicative of the Space Security and Defense Program (SSDP), refusing the $37 million budget request for the organization.[6] It is expected to complete its first architecture study, which focuses on missile warning, missile tracking, and missile defense architecture.[7]
