英国皇家空军过去一年一直在使用地基系统进行卫星干扰或阻断，以防止敌对国家卫星追踪英国核武装潜艇和特种作战行动1。为应对日益增加的太空威胁，英国国防部设立了新的太空效应中队，专注于"破坏、降级和阻止太空中的敌对威胁"1。
英国国防大臣韦斯·斯特里廷指出GPS丧失将使英国经济每天损失14亿英镑1。俄罗斯据称每周都试图用地基系统干扰英国卫星1。5月份，英国皇家空军追踪到5颗俄罗斯卫星进行危险机动靠近两颗芬兰商业卫星1。美国上周首次确认在太空部署了未指定的"武器"以防御自身卫星1，引发中国和俄罗斯的谴责，两国警告太空军备竞赛的风险1。
The British military has disclosed that it is actively using ground-based satellite jamming systems to defend against threats from adversarial nations 1. The Royal Air Force has deployed these systems over the past year to disrupt or block satellites, preventing hostile countries from tracking UK nuclear-armed submarines and special operations 1.
In response to escalating space-based threats, the UK Ministry of Defence has established a new Space Effects Squadron dedicated to "disrupting, degrading, and denying hostile threats in space" 1. Defence Secretary Wes Streeting emphasized the strategic stakes of space capabilities, warning that the loss of GPS would cost the British economy £1.4 billion daily 1. According to intelligence reports, Russia allegedly attempts to jam British satellites using ground-based systems on a weekly basis 1. In May, the Royal Air Force tracked five Russian satellites performing dangerous maneuvers in close proximity to two Finnish commercial satellites 1.
The disclosure comes amid broader international tensions over space militarization. The United States recently confirmed for the first time that it has deployed unspecified "weapons" in space to defend its own satellites 1. China and Russia have condemned the American action, warning that such moves risk triggering an arms race in space 1.
