The satellite will provide significantly improved global, survivable, highly secure, protected, communications for warfighters operating on ground, sea and air platforms.
A single AEHF satellite will provide greater total capacity than the entire Milstar constellation currently in-orbit.
The AEHF will also provide the critical survivable, protected and endurable communications to the National Command Authority including presidential conferencing in all levels of conflict.
