Each AEHF satellite has three times the capacity of the entire legacy system, with the entire AEHF constellation providing 10 times the throughput.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The system is designed for high-priority missions, including ensuring survivable, secure communications following a nuclear strike. AEHF will also serve U.S. international partners, including Australia, Canada, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AEHF-6 was<a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/battlefield-tech\/space\/2020\/03\/27\/last-of-the-aehf-satellites-lifts-off-from-florida\/\" target=_blank> launched March 26 from Cape Canaverla Air Force Station<\/a>, Florida, as the Space Force\u2019s first mission launch.

Force<\/a> in February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In March, the Space Force issued <a
