WGS satellites are important elements of a new high-capacity satellite communications system providing enhanced communications capabilities to America`s troops in the field for the next decade and beyond. WGS enables more robust and flexible execution of Command and Control, Communications Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR), as well as battle management and combat support information functions.
