Ultimately, services like SpaceX's Starlink might succeed the existing military satcom infrastructure in the US, as per the official.
That’s because Starlink recently showed off its direct-to-cell service, which allows individuals to directly connect to satellites via their smartphones. Starlink’s direct-to-cell could be “really disruptive”
The US Space Force plans on commissioning two new narrowband communications satellites from either Lockheed Martin or Boeing. This would allow it to improve its existing MUOS constellation, which is made up of five satellites in geosynchronous orbits.However, Felt also explained that the Space Force is keeping a close eye on the development of direct-to-cell commercial satellite communications services. Ultimately, these may succeed MUOS.
“They are looking at all kinds of options,” he said. “The really disruptive thing here is direct to cell, 5G from space.”
