text: Army Space Operations
  reconnaissance is critical in an area of operations where manned aircraft, unmanned aerial
  systems, and terrestrial intelligence collection are limited by enemy A2 and AD efforts.
  MOVEMENT AND MANEUVER
  4-55. Space capabilities are a critical facilitator of movement and maneuver operations. All echelons—
  from theater to company level and below are dependent on space capabilities when executing movement and
  maneuver. A loss of space capabilities during large scale combat operations means the Army would revert to
  more conventional operate style. Communications, battle tracking, precise navigation, timely intelligence
  and many other modern warfare expectations are disrupted.
  4-56. Army space operations support the movement and maneuver warfighting function and provides the
  units with the capabilities to enable rapid movement thereby providing an advantage to friendly forces.
  Various space capabilities are used to facilitate the decision making process for movement and maneuver.
  Refer to ADP 3-0 for discussions on movement and maneuver warfighting function.
  * SSA provides insight to understanding adversary intent and movement, which allows U.S. and
  joint forces more time to place joint forces in a position of advantage.
  * PNT provides enhanced navigational accuracy in featureless or obscured environments, supports
  high speed maneuver for positional advantage, and provides accurate location and timing critical
  to tactical missions. It helps set accurate air corridors and allows aircraft greater ability to follow
  established corridors. FFT adds a level of fidelity useful to a commander gaining situational
  understanding when making decisions impacting movement and maneuver of friendly unit
  positions and fosters timely adjustments to operational plans. FFT capabilities helps mitigate
  fratricide due to unprecedented knowledge of all joint and allied forces via the COP.
  * Space Control. DSC and NAVWAR fosters assured, uninterrupted PNT and take measures to
  protect friendly force access to space capabilities. DSC can help locate enemy electronic warfare
  and counterspace capabilities. OSC can assist in operations to deny the enemy use of space
  capabilities, and protect friendly access to the same.
  * SATCOM enables communications on-the-move in areas of limited line of sight communications
  and allows commanders to communicate beyond line of sight to subordinate elements regardless
  of the distance from the commander’s location. SATCOM allows for commanders and their staff
  to have current information on subordinate units locations, status, disposition, and provide
  operational planning guidance to adjust to rapidly evolving tactical situations. Systems such as
  the Soldier Network Extension and Point of Presence provide tactical commanders with
  SATCOM capability while stationary or on-the-move.
  * Missile warning provides known launch locations with kinematic access and predicted impact
  points when specific launches are detected. Missile Warning provides timely threat warning of
  inbound missile and other high energy enemy capabilities and assists in planning for how
  maneuver formations, command posts, sustainment facilities, and other friendly forces will be
  positioned on the battlefield. Well-positioned forces helps increase timely warning so troops have
  sufficient time to take reactive measures to a threat missile event.
  * Environmental monitoring provides the commander with information that may affect military
  operations, enabling forces to take advantage of adverse environmental conditions, or avoid
  situations negatively impacting their ability to maneuver.
  * Space-based imagery and geospatial information provide visualization of terrain for actual and
  planned missions, and helps identify obstacles and the most likely movement corridors.
  INTELLIGENCE
  4-57. Intelligence depends on space capabilities and effects to provide intelligence support to force
  generation, provide support to situational understanding, conduct information collection, and provide
  intelligence support to targeting and information operations.
  4-58. Space-based sensors providing critical input for the production of intelligence. Space-based sensors
  gather information concerning relevant OE, as well as provide positional relationship of threat forces during
