SpaceX launches U.S. Space Force ‘rapid response’ GPS mission

In a secretive mission, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched the U.S. military’s GPS III SV-07 satellite on Dec. 16, demonstrating the ability to condense a typical two-year planning cycle to under six months.

Originally slated for a late 2025 launch aboard ULA’s Vulcan rocket, SV-07 was reassigned due to Vulcan delays.

The “Rapid Response Trailblazer-1” (RRT-1) mission aimed to prove the U.S. Space Force’s ability to rapidly deploy critical assets like GPS in response to threats or failures, Space News has reported.
