Defensive Counter Space

Defensive Counter Space refers to strategies and actions taken to protect, secure, and maintain control over a nation’s space assets, like satellites, from enemy threats. It involves using technologies and tactics to detect and intercept threats, such as missiles or hostile satellites, aiming to safeguard crucial communications, navigation, and reconnaissance capabilities. Essentially, it is about ensuring that a country can defend its interests in space and prevent adversaries from disrupting or destroying its space operations. This is increasingly important as reliance on space-based systems grows in military and civilian sectors.
