Air Force Space Command

Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) was a major command of the U.S. Air Force focused on military space operations. Established to ensure the United States maintained space superiority, AFSPC managed satellite operations, missile warning systems, and space surveillance. It played a key role in protecting American interests in space and supporting global operations through communication and reconnaissance satellites. In 2019, it was reorganized as the United States Space Force, reflecting the growing importance of space as a domain of military operations and national security.
