Boosts Space Force training and readiness for future space conflicts.
This bill would strengthen the U.S. Space Force by expanding its ability to practice for potential conflicts in space. It would also create new training programs for space operators. Additionally, Congress would get a report on China's commercial space activities and their possible military uses.
Today, the Space Force's capacity for practicing space conflicts and specific training for space operators are not explicitly required to be expanded or developed by law. There's also no legal requirement for the Secretary of Defense to report on Chinese commercial space capabilities to Congress. After this bill, the Space Force would expand its capacity for wargaming and simulations, and new training programs for space operators would be developed. The Secretary of Defense would also be required to submit an unclassified report to Congress on Chinese commercial space capabilities and their potential military applications within 180 days of the bill becoming law.
