Air Force Studies Options for Deploying T-Sat Capabilities

摘要

The U.S. Air Force has been directed to examine whether to fit existing space assets with advanced systems that had been planned for the defunct Transformation Satellite, or T-Sat, communications system under a May 22 acquisition decision memorandum issued by senior Pentagon officials.rnJosh Hartman, senior adviser to the Pentagon acquisition executive, says certain T-Sat subsystems may be installed on future models of existing satellites, such as the Wideband Global Satcom and Advanced Extremely High Frequency craft.
