This document outlines the command, control, communications, intelligence, and space assets of both Blue and Red forces engaged in a simulated space scenario called Operation Blue Thunder. It identifies the specific satellites, ground stations, and vehicles that each side would use and lists possible attacks that Blue forces could conduct against Red targets, ranging from reversible jamming to irreversible destruction of satellites and ground infrastructure. The document aims to realistically model the space domain of operations for military planning and training purposes.
