Getting 610 Mibps of data connectivity to/from a Fighter Jet is likely game changing.
Starlink connectivity is from the jet to a satellite back to a ground station, making jamming the signal much more difficult from Jet to ground. I assume the starlink satellites can bounce the signal from one another as well.

- cobookman 7y agoAh if they could do Ground->Sat->Sat->Ground. You could always have the Sat->Ground communication over the USA. In that setup, to jam the signal would require equipment between the USA<->Sat link (difficult), Sat<->Sat (even more difficult), or Plane->Sat (very difficult)
