Allied cosmodrome usage in Space Force discussions initiated by the U.S.
The U.S. Space Force is exploring ways to grow its capabilities for securing space, hinting at potential collaborations with allies and partner nations. As per reports from Breaking Defense, this info comes straight from Brigadier General Christina Panzenhagen of the U.S. Space Force.
It seems the Defense Department has already dipped its toes into these foreign waters through small-scale tests under the Pentagon's space experiment program. Yet, Panzenhagen emphasizes that these alliances are being evaluated to extend the reach of national security space launches.
Breaking Defense, citing Panzenhagen, reinforces the U.S. Space Force's ambition to boost its resilience and exploration methods for breaching the cosmos.
According to reports from a couple of days back, the Pentagon's budget is about to balloon by 13% to finance the "deterrence through strength" vision. Plans include the initial investment in the Gold Shield missile defense system, safeguarding U.S. supremacy in space, funding for the F-47, border defense, nuclear deterrence modernization, and a 3.8% jump in military pay.
Way back in the U.S. Congress, there was a sum reserved for creating space-based missile defense systems.
In summary, the U.S. Space Force is gearing up to reinforce and widen its space security capabilities. By implementing initiatives such as the National Security Space Launch (NSSL) Program and the Commercial Augmentation Space Reserve (CASR), it's gradually becoming a force to be reckoned with in the final frontier. While the specifics of these projects are still under wraps, the overall objective is clear - to secure a formidable presence in space and shield America from outside threats.
