Orbital warfare refers to military operations that take place in space, particularly involving the use of satellites and other spacecraft. It encompasses various strategies, including the disruption, destruction, or control of space-based assets like communication, navigation, and reconnaissance satellites. This type of warfare aims to gain a tactical advantage by leveraging space technology, impacting both terrestrial military capabilities and civilian infrastructure. As reliance on satellites grows, orbital warfare is increasingly viewed as a critical aspect of national security and defense strategies among nations.
