As the world is rapidly becoming more technologically advanced, reliable and affordable global connectivity through space-based platforms is quickly becoming a reality. This paper will examine the emerging trend for super satellite constellations to provide global communication coverage and how this could be a game changer for the Canadian Armed Forces’ (CAF) ability to enforce sovereignty in the north. The paper provides suggestions about how this new technology could be used and potential areas where the CAF should invest resources to ensure our Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) enterprise is able to take advantage of this new technology.
