SpaceX Strengthens Ukraine’s Connectivity with Pentagon Pact

SpaceX clinched a Pentagon deal to bolster Ukraine's internet by adding 2,500 Starlink terminals to its Starshield network, reaching a total of 3,000 by 2025. Starshield's encrypted, hack-resistant communication is vital amid conflict, though U.S. lawmakers are investigating Russian misuse rumors. Part of the Space Force’s Proliferated Low Earth Orbit program and backed by $40M funding, this expansion leverages existing infrastructure to ensure secure connectivity—keeping Ukraine connected and hopefully keeping the cyber gremlins at bay.
