Important article that is a reality check on why America needs a terrestrial augment to #GPS . The consequences of inaction can be prevented with NextNav’s private sector solution. It’s time for action!#PNT
Retired four-star Admiral Michael S. Rogers says the U.S. must strengthen #GPS with a ground-based backup, calling the 2022 jamming over @DFWAirport “a wake-up call.” In @dallasnews, Rogers outlines why 5G-powered #PNT "is mission assurance we can achieve today." #GPSResiliency
