Employment of Space-based capabilities has become so seamless that some aren't consciously aware that we are using them. Even as a Soldier is using his cell phone to call home, it might not occur to him that he's using Space-based technology. Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom provide multiple examples of Space-based combat power enablers: (1) First, use of Space control in support of military operation; (2) Global, embedded, real-time precision navigation and targeting; (3) In-theater, direct downlink missile warning; (4) Reliable, wideband, on-demand communications; (5) National intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance in support of theater commander requirements (Embedded dissemination and processing capability greatly reduced timelines to divisions.); (6) Near real-time, accurate geospatial intelligence from Department of Defense (DoD) and commercial venues; (7) Deployment of cohesive, trained Space units and professionals (See ASJ, April 2004 for more information) The experiences and lessons from Operation Iraqi Freedom have served to crystallize the need for additional capabilities in intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), satellite communications and Space control. We've learned that today's combat operations advance so quickly that our ground-based communications assets can't always keep up - they don't always have the time to stop and set up. One of the Army's top-most priorities for the future is to improve our communications on the move capability. Small numbers of Airmen used Space-enabled communications with their unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to track down and attack the enemy, run reconnaissance missions and provide battlefield damage assessments - tasks formerly accomplished with large units supporting reconnaissance aircraft, both on the ground and in the air.
