NTS-3, developed by 元Harris Technologies, builds on the legacy of NTS-1 and NTS-2, which were launched in the 1970s. In 2019, the Department of the Air Force designed NTS-3 as one of the three programs with the goal of delivering remarkable new capabilities that provide warfighters superior advantages in the battlefield. “It’s probably going to affect so many lives, not just military but commercial alike.” “This is important because we are testing one of the new satellites that will be going up into space to help with all of our GPS systems,” Amarachi Egbuziem-Ciolkosz, Engineer, 772nd Test Squadron, said. Anticipated to launch in late 2023, Navigation Technology Satellite-3 will be the Department of Defense’s first experimental, integrated navigation satellite system in nearly 50 years. The Benefield Anechoic Facility (BAF) at Edwards AFB recently tested its first orbital satellite in decades.
