Space operations influence the conduct of all corps, division, and brigade operations. Space operations enable operations by providing positioning, navigation, timing, satellite communications, space-based intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, missile warning, and weather. Army units are consumers of information generated in the space domain and influence space operations by their demands for space-based capabilities. Space operations heavily impact daily operations in Army units. Deliberate planning and targeting processes must request space-based capabilities and effects through the JFC in a timely manner. Commanders who assume short notice responsiveness for space-based capabilities without understanding the limitations of those capabilities increase risk to the mission and their units.
