Communication Navigation and Surveillance resilience plays a critical role in both military and civil aviation. A failure or disruption due to satellite operations poses significant risks, ranging from compromised military effectiveness to disruptions in global air traffic management. For military aviation, satellite failures can hinder secure communications, degrade precision navigation, limit real-time intelligence, and weaken early warning systems, ultimately affecting national security and operational readiness. In civil aviation, the loss of satellite services can disrupt GPS-based navigation, impacting pilots and air traffic controllers, and reduce weather forecasting accuracy, leading to increased safety risks and operational inefficiencies. This panel will explore the vulnerabilities of aviation systems, assess potential mitigation strategies, and discuss the growing need for resilient infrastructure in an era of increasing reliance on space-based assets.
