America runs on GPS. It needs a backup plan
Experts are warning that the United States depends too heavily on GPS for navigation, timing and critical infrastructure, leaving it exposed if the satellite system is jammed, spoofed or knocked out. Policy analysts are calling for terrestrial backup systems and greater resilience to protect transport, finance and military operations that rely on precise positioning signals.
Why now: Growing concern over GPS vulnerabilities to jamming, spoofing and adversary threats has renewed debate over resilient positioning and timing alternatives.
