Thanks to the US Space Force’s Victus Nox solution program, launching a satellite takes a day, not months.

The U.S. Space Force is embarking on a valiant effort to ensure that the U.S. military is not blind to a conflict. The Gizmodo According to his statement, the essence of the Victus Nox program is that if an enemy force launches any satellite, it can replace it with another within 24 hours.

Currently, it can take several months to launch a satellite. According to the U.S. Space Force, this would not be timed in the event of an armed conflict, because without these instruments, the U.S. military could essentially fly blind: it would not know what movements the enemy was making.
