The U.K. is connected to the Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) protected communications satellite system by Lockheed Martin. It’s the last of the partner nations to use the satellites for their most important transmissions, Lockheed said Tuesday in a news release (http://lmt.co/1nvGIxK). AEHF is designed to circumvent adversaries’ jammers in most wartime operations, it said. The program is led by the U.S. Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center, Lockheed said. The U.S., U.K., Canada and the Netherlands will begin operational testing and evaluation, it said.
