US Air Forces in Europe and German officials met at Ramstein AB, Germany, to sign a support arrangement, detailing how USAFE will accommodate the German support unit on Ramstein. A previous agreement, signed in 1988, had become outdated, said officials, because of organizational changes for both the Germans and Americans. The new agreement, signed Dec. 1, details logistics and administrative support, including housing and workspace, USAFE will provide to the German unit on Ramstein.
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.
