London, United Kingdom, March 12, 2019 –(PR.com)– SMi’s MilSatCom USA is making its highly-anticipated return to Arlington, VA on June 26th-27th 2019, as the leading event for U.S. government and industry experts, and international allies, focusing on military SATCOM.

Last week, President Donald Trump signed Space Policy Directive-4 (SPD-4), calling for the Pentagon to create legislation to establish a new Space Force as the sixth branch of the United States military, alongside the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard.

The aim of the Space Force, as stated by Trump and White House officials, is to secure and extend US dominance of the space domain. (Source: space.com)
