What is Starshield, SpaceX's military Starlink for Ukraine?

Original: What is Starshield, SpaceX’s military-grade Starlink system, and how will its restriction affect Ukraine?

Attention is turning to Starshield, SpaceX's military-grade version of Starlink built for US national security customers, after reports of possible restrictions on its use. Ukraine has depended heavily on SpaceX satellite connectivity for battlefield communications and drone operations, so any limits on Starshield access could directly affect its war effort against Russia. Observers are debating how much control Elon Musk's company and Washington have over Ukraine's critical space-based infrastructure.

Why now: Concerns that restrictions on SpaceX's military satellite service could undermine Ukraine's battlefield communications are drawing attention.
