Space Force- Full Spectrum Operations
New Space Capability!
The U.S. Space Force (USSF) was established 20 Dec 2019 creating the first new branch of the armed services in 73 years. Recently Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall spoke at a Space Symposium in Colorado Springs where he emphasized that space capabilities are “important to our strategy of integrated deterrence” and is the reason USSF must drive “transformational change” to face the challenges today in space.
So there’s that.
Space Force Will Get New Capability for ‘Full Spectrum Operations’ by 2026, Saltzman Says
April 19, 2023 | By Greg Hadley
Within a few years, the Space Force be able to conduct “full spectrum operations” in orbit, Chief of Space Operations Gen. B. Chance Saltzman said this week—hinting at a new space weapon that could be used offensively while offering scant details.
Testifying before the Senate Appropriations defense subcommittee, Saltzman highlighted the new capability as an example of how the Space Force has used the extra funding Congress provided the service’s classified budget in fiscal 2023.
“I’m happy to say that by the end of my tenure, if I make it all the way to [2026], that you’re going to see a substantial on-orbit capability that allows us to compete in full spectrum operations,” Saltzman told lawmakers. “I’m not sure I could have said that two years ago, but the fact that we’ve accelerated the programs and we’ve built a program that delivers and capability in terms of three, four, or five years, I’m very comfortable that we have a program in place that will do just that.”

What exact capability or system the Space Force has been able to accelerate the development of remains a secret.

Call Elon about new capabilities, General.
Buzzword bingo aside, what is it y’all do exactly?
Category: Space Force, WTF?
Their Service Academy will be comprised of Space Cadets.
And Sick Bay with Space Cases.
Hooking up at The Space Bar has consequences…
You should see the needle for Space (no one can hear you) Clap.

Does this mean there will be more Space Force Door Gunner MOS Slots opened up? The 40 watt Plasma Rifles increased to 80 watt? Weekend Liberty Shuttles to Venus?
PHFFFTT. I don’t think that we’re gonna have 3,4, or 5 years before we’re gonna have to bring every weapon we have to bear upon the foreign AND domestic enemies of our Republic.
They will open the slots up to women as well and give them nine recycles after a year and a half train up.
Do you mean those persons who identify as women, or persons assigned as women at birth?
Sky is the limit here.
No pun intended.
Somali space pirates will be a thing. We have to protect our shit.
IS THAT ALL you had as Space Shuttle Door Gunners? Try the M666 Plasma Gun they issued me for being Door Gunner on the Apollo Missions!

Dang shame cuz if’n so, once the ship gets to space it’ll be; too cold or too hot, upset that there’s prettier ships, be angry that you watched the game instead of some bs lifetime movie with it, or tired and/or has a headache…
Wait for the Trans Gender Ship, takes off as a Dick but turns into a Vulva or Volvo in Space!
Not sure what the Space Shuttle Door Gunner is trying to hit, but….?!
Seriously though, I applaud SpaceX for a successful launch…too bad about the recovery. Now you have to build another. I would however much rather have one blow up with no people on board than to have what happened when I was in highschool or when I was deployed to Afghanistan. Everyone learns from their mistakes…except the dead!
Hey, meteors and space debris are a pretty serious threat.
And socialist democrats and liberals.
Bring in the last Starfighter to handle anyhostile Alien’s we may run across.
Hey, partially related topic, if commercial space flight becomes more regular by 2026, will flights offer space peanuts?
No it would be space balls.
😆
I made this for Jonn and others.

YOU!! I was trying to remember who was initially responsible.
THANKS again, rgr1480
Do you know that hangs on my office wall at that very facility?
I do get a bunch of sideways looks whenever somebody comes in my office to see that… WTF?!?! 🤔😳
Full spectrum …..
Autism?
Give us more moolah. We cannot tell you what we are doing with it but it will be well spent. Sure,that’s it…
“Full spectrum operations”? Really dude? You expect us to believe that when you can’t even use the current/correct buzzwords?
It’s NOT ‘full spectrum operations’, it’s Multi-Domain Operations.
F’ing Spaceman Spiff 🙄
