The Air Force has renamed the Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence, headquartered at Brooks City-Base, Tex., to the Air Force Center for Engineering and the Environment—the acronym, therefore, is still AFCEE. A base release says the new name “more accurately reflects the organization’s increased scope of responsibilities.” AFCEE now oversees the service’s military construction, military family housing, and environmental restoration, part of a centralization move by the Air Force.
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.
