In my view and opinion, we can not understand the current militarization and weaponization of space assets, without the role of space and missile defense in the US side. Especially since the US withdrew from the ABM treaty in 2002 and the development and ties of the MDA with the US military space infrastructure (through the USAF and USSF).

A vision for the new Space Futures Command is beginning to take shape: according to Breaking Defense, the new command will consist of "a Concepts and Technologies Center, a Wargaming Center and the [existing]Space Warfighting and Analysis Center (SWAC)". Lt. Gen. Shawn Bratton has assembled a task force to determine the command's requirements and flesh out other details. What do you expect from Space Futures Command? Will its structure take after the Army Futures Command? https://lnkd.in/ggCx9QjV

Laboratory-developed technology is vital to our nation’s ability to project power and thus deter future aggression. We at the Air Force Research Laboratory, supporting both the United States Air Force & United States Space Force are doing just that to provide our warfighters with the advanced, reliable and effective capabilities they need to protect our nation today and to secure our future. Our success comes from three major pillars: ??Our renowned workforce ??Our one-of-a-kind research facilities ??Our strong partnerships Due to all of this, AFRL is uniquely positioned to understand warfighter challenges and deliver the affordable technologies they need. #AFResearchLab | #WorldLabDay | #LabDay | #USAirForce | #USSpaceForce

Great to get the opportunity to write about how Airspace Unlimited views the future of airspace design and management - there is the possibility to win for military force generation, win for saving fuel costs and win for the environment through reducing emissions. A win, win, win - there aren't many of those to be had!

?? Integrating Commercial Capabilities in Space Operations: Industry & Military Leaders Weigh In... A recent event by the CSIS Aerospace Security Project shed light on this pivotal topic Key insights were shared by Colonel Byron McClain and Shannon Pallone of the U.S. Space Command: ??Byron McClain: Stressed the importance of timely delivery in space domain awareness and combat power. ??Shannon Pallone: Emphasized the interconnectedness of space systems, noting the critical nature of integration for effective decision-making. Their discussion highlighted the necessity of a cohesive approach for enhanced military effectiveness.

Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS), SASC Ranking Member the following paper today: Snippets re: the U.S. Space Force: Every military service relies on the Space Force to communicate, navigate, target, and conduct modern warfare. The U.S. Space Force has enjoyed real budgetary growth since its inception, but that does not mean it cannot do more. Classified programs in development must be procured at scale. The Space Force also must be able to defend itself in space and on the ground. Assured access to space remains a top priority for the Space Force, and the launch industry cannot be allowed to consolidate or stop driving down cost-per-launch. The Space Force must ride the zeitgeist of rapid commercial development in the space domain and use that to its advantage. T The size of the Space Force and Space Command unfunded requests in FY25 belie the fact that much more can be done to ensure the U.S. retains the advantage in space. https://lnkd.in/ei8umPd5

It's easy to question why the Army would need to expand space expertise after the standup of the USSF. The U.S. created a new service to handle the operations in, from, and to space. So why would the Army need space-smart soldiers? The different military components (Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard) all have their own unique and important roles to play. Each one will have different requirements for and from space. Having well-trained and experienced members will help each component complete its mission and to integrate with the space component. #Military #SpaceExpertise #Army #USSF #Collaboration

In an era where space has become the new frontier for global military dominance, one figure stands at the forefront of this transformation: Dr. Adib Enayati. Regarded as the Father of Modern Space Warfare, Dr. Enayati’s groundbreaking contributions—ranging from the Principles of Spaceborne Warfare to the pioneering concept of Orbital Suppression—have redefined how nations approach conflict in space. His visionary integration of stealth technology into orbital assets and the introduction of Spaceborne Mission Control Hubs and Active Spaceborne Decoys have fortified the United States’ strategic superiority in space, ensuring it remains a global leader in the final frontier. Dr. Enayati’s work not only secures the future of space warfare but also cements his legacy as a revolutionary force in modern military strategy.

This week, CSPS launched the new debate series highlighting national security space debates with arguments from two analysts external to The Aerospace Corporation. For the next edition, Paula Thornhill and Charles Galbreath debate how the concept of "warfighter" should fit into United States Space Force culture. Thornhill argues that argues that the mission of the Space Force does not align with the long-standing paradigm defining warfighters by their direct role in organized violence. Alternatively, Galbreath suggests that Guardians are warfighters because they conduct operations and provide services critical to the U.S. military under an increasing range of threats. ??
