The Air Force is training for urban close air support and once again enlisting the cooperation of a local community. This time the training is taking place over Pahrump, Nev., and continues for brief periods through Thursday. Last year, the service flew around three towns in Louisiana to practice UCAS operations.
The Space Force is playing midwife to a new ecosystem of commercial satellite constellations providing alternatives to the service’s own Global Positioning Service from much closer to the Earth, making their signals more accurate and harder to jam.
