Knocking down satellites is not that easy….In any event, GPS with space assets is the easy way to do it with global coverage. If the worst case happens and someone blows away GPS, you can reproduce GPS on a local area with ground stations, or even a constellation of TR-1’s.

It’s kinda scary that all that ordnance is riding on 20-30 satellites that are basically sitting ducks….
