GPS has enabled US and its allied forces to strike targets with pinpoint accuracy while reducing collateral damage. Additionally, GPS has brought significant benefits to over three billion civilian users worldwide in diverse applications such as road, rail, and marine navigation, precision agriculture, mining, oil exploration, environmental research, telecommunications, electronic data transfer, construction, recreation, and emergency response. The system is maintained by the US Air Force and provides precise global positioning, navigation, and timing services to users around the globe. The latest generation of GPS satellites offers improved accuracy through advanced atomic clocks and a longer design life, benefiting both military and civilian users. 

Furthermore, the GPS III constellation, managed by a new ground control system, promises triple the accuracy and eight times the anti-jamming capabilities compared to previous satellites, ensuring enhanced reliability, accuracy, security, and cyber protection for all users, military and civilian alike.
