Currently, there are 23 GPS satellites on orbit capable of broadcasting M-Code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt will improve interoperability with our defense partners\u2019 equipment and operations while increasing navigation warfare effectiveness for allied operations,\u201d SMC noted in its statement. \u201cProviding [Military GPS User Equipment] to our allies is another example of SMC delivering vital capabilities to the war fighter and the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SMC noted that the order from Germany is just the first of many as the organization works to facilitate access to M-Code-enabled GPS user equipment to 58 authorized nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While details about the German order were not released by SMC, the center noted that additional foreign military sales are in development and it has a multilateral agreement to loan M-Code-ready ground-based receivers to approved partners for early integration and testing. Additionally, SMC said it is working with several nations on M-Code prototyping, demonstration and platform planning efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The order highlights the fact that after years of work and major delays, M-Code could soon be available. Despite the fact that nearly two dozen M-Code-capable GPS satellites are on orbit, the ground system needed to enable the new signal is behind schedule. According to a 2019 Government Accountability Office report, the $6.2 billion Next Generation Operational Control System being built by Raytheon Technologies is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/c2-comms\/satellites\/2019\/05\/22\/raytheon-rejects-report-that-62-billion-gps-project-will-be-delayed-further\/\" target=_blank>five years behind schedule<\/a>. Delivery of that system is now expected in June 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To help offset that delay, the U.S. Air Force awarded Lockheed Martin a contract in 2016 to build an M-Code upgrade for the current GPS ground system. That upgrade will enable M-Code Early Use, a limited version of the signal, until the new ground system is ready. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/battlefield-tech\/c2-comms\/2019\/06\/11\/air-force-gets-new-stopgap-system-for-gps-3-satellites\/\" target=_blank>M-Code Early Use was delivered in June 2019<\/a>, entered a trial period in October and was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/battlefield-tech\/space\/2020\/03\/31\/plan-b-for-gps-iii-ground-system-approved-for-everyday-use\/\" target=_blank>approved for everyday use in March 2020<\/a>.
