Spy Agency Spy Ready to Launch New Vehicle-tracking Satellites

The National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) is gearing up for the launch of new satellites designed to enhance the U.S. military and intelligence community’s ability to monitor moving vehicles and individuals from space.

The Air Force aims to replace its aging E-8 Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) aircraft, which provide targeting data, with more resilient space assets.

A portion of the ground moving target indicator mission, known as GMTI, is intended to be transitioned to satellites.

Christopher Scolese, director of the NRO, confirmed that the agency has already deployed satellites for testing purposes and is now prepared to launch satellites for operational use.

However, specific details regarding the timing of these launches and the operational readiness of the systems have not been disclosed, Defense One reported.
