The program, called OCX, initially planned to use hardware from the IBM x86 product line. However, that product line is being sold to Chinese-owned Lenovo in August 2022 \u2014 a purchase that was approved in 2014 by the U.S. government agency that reviews international investment in U.S. companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Already, the Raytheon program is years behind schedule, according to a Government Accountability Office report from May. The company<a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/battlefield-tech\/c2-comms\/2019\/08\/23\/new-modernized-gps-ground-system-said-to-be-on-track\/\"> delivered the first part of OCX<\/a>, the launch and checkout system, in September 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But to ensure that the GPS III satellites weren\u2019t sitting idly in orbit until OCX was available, the Air Force contracted with Lockheed Martin to build an upgrade to the current ground system. This way, the Space Force could take advantage of at least some of the GPS III capabilities in the interim. <a

and has been operating in a trial period since October 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Air Force Operational Test and Evaluation Center\u2019s said March 27 the new system completed its trial period Feb. 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the announcement, the contingency system is now being used to control the first two GPS III satellites.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Space Force said the contingency program it has been relying on until a new ground system for the GPS III satellites is ready has
