The ability to maneuver through and understand what’s happening in space will be crucial to future military operations, Gen. Whiting said this week. The Space Force has told Congress it plans to spend $1 billion on Resilient GPS over the next five years. The defense contractor has unveiled a large unmanned ground vehicle, named ATLAS, that is available in a "collaborative combat" variant. The Space Force plans to establish an initial pool of vendors for the Maneuverable GEO program next year.

The Air Force’s information warfare organization, 16th Air Force, has been working over the last year to ramp up its sensor and AI capabilities. Under the service's DEF 129 program numerous platforms are due to be replaced or upgraded. Awareness of the space domain and the means to protect and fight against threats are top needs for service, according to the chief of space operations. “My own experience suggests that this is a historically neglected area that can have an oversized impact." The nanosatellite won’t be weaponized, though it may include a “dazzling” capacity, according to the general in charge. The program aims to create a production capability that specifically addresses military requirements for advanced semiconductors. Early adopters of the Air Force's AI system come from a range of career fields and have used it for a variety of tasks — from content creation to coding. That work is increasingly important for the U.S., which is racing against China to shape the next iteration of wireless telecommunications. The point-to-point nature of lasers makes them more secure than radio frequencies, and they can’t be jammed the way radio can. Load More
