US Space Command Elevates Counter-LEO and Integrated Fires as 2029–2033 Priorities

TL;DR
US Space Command has identified its top capability gaps for 2029–2033, prioritizing integrated space fires and counter-proliferated low Earth orbit capabilities, followed by joint space command-and-control, dedicated space-domain awareness, and sustained space maneuver; the aim is credible deterrence and the ability to disrupt adversary space networks, with industry and government labs urged to develop solutions, while Space Command itself does not procure the systems.
