US Space Command is preparing for satellite-on-satellite combat

They have not said which, but it is not hard to guess. “The French have talked about Russian manoeuvres [near French satellites] over the years,” says General Stephen Whiting, speaking at the headquarters of US Space Command in Colorado Springs. “And so…we demonstrated that we could both manoeuvre satellites near each other and near other countries’ satellites in a way that signalled our ability to operate well together.”
