On a black vertically elongated hexagon, a white and gray delta in flight generating a pair of antique white rays from underneath surmounted by blue terrestrial globe, landmass in white, emerging from the bottom right corner and encircled by a pair of silver orbital rings; to the left and right of the delta the constellations of Aquila and Ursa Minor and above all a polestar, all white; all within a narrow gray border.

The black background of the hexagon symbolizes defense of the space domain. The Aquila and Ursa Minor constellations in the forms of a falcon and bear symbolize the organization’s unwavering dedication to protect our nation and our forces around the globe. The surveillance rings encircling the globe represent Space Base Delta 2’s support of missile warning around the planet. The Delta orienting towards the North Star and lifted by surveillance rays symbolizes the organization’s commitment to the USSF and also pays tribute to the 2d Space Wing. The platinum border represents Space Base Delta 2’s ties to the mission of Space Operations Command (SpOC).
