    2) ‘Supporting the Warfighter With Resilient, Persistent and Mobile SATCOM’

    • Importance of the connected warrior to US strategic goals

    Presented by Lieutenant Colonel Neil Menzie, SATCOM and PNT Branch Chief, US Joint Staff J6.

    3) ‘CENTCOM Communications: Operational SATCOM in Combat Environments’

    • CENTCOM’s specific SATCOM context and setup
    • Maintaining resilient and effective SATCOM in hostile and inhospitable environments
    • Preparing SATCOM for near-peer adversary conflict
    • Implementing interoperable systems for multinational coalitions and building partner capacity

    Presented by Colonel Ed Skelly, Operations Division Chief, J6 Directorate, USCENTCOM.

    As adversaries increasingly invest in electronic warfare technologies in a bid to interfere with satellite communications, including counter-space weapons, jamming and cyber-attacks, the significant loss of capability has become a real and looming threat. These new and more frequent threats to SATCOM, along with the growing demand for secure and reliable connectivity, mean that the challenges facing today's SATCOM systems are considerable.

    It is now essential to ensure our SATCOM technology is resilient and persistent in order to cater to increasing demand, withstand attacks and continue to deliver effective capability.
