Falcon 9 launches final GPS 3 satellite into orbit for U.S. Space Force
-
The U.S. Space Force officially took ownership of the GPS Next Generation Operational Control System, or OCX, from contractor RTX on July 1, 2025, yet it is still not operational!
The OCX program is a large-scale, highly complex ground control system designed to operate the most modern fleet of GPS satellites, GPS III.
The Space Force operates a fleet of 32 GPS satellites, which serve both military users and civilians. The GPS III satellites, nine of which have been launched, are more jam-resistant and precise than older variants. See my article on GPS Jamming here: https://techaptitude.substack.com/p/gps-jamming-the-risks-are-real?r=vn8b8
OCX was originally to be delivered in 2016 for a cost of $3.7 billion. The cost estimate for OCX has ballooned to nearly $8 billion, and its persistent delays have earned it a reputation within the space community as a “troubled” program. https://www.airandspaceforces.com/pentagon-eyes-canceling-troubled-gps-ground-system/ #GPS #UDSF #SpaceForce #GPSIII #OCX #Pentagon #DoD #Satellites #Navigation #Security

Why GPS III, and what comes after it, still falls short in modern war
