Abstract

In the field of launch vehicles, the US, Russia, Europe and other countries accelerated the research and development of large carrier rockets in 2022 but the progress was mixed. The US and Russia launched multiple reconnaissance satellites as planned and space-based reconnaissance capabilities were constantly upgraded and improved. The US, Russia and China accelerated the development and deployment of advanced communication satellite systems with high throughput, high speed and anti-interference to effectively meet the communication needs of future operations and develop navigation capabilities in complex confrontation environments. The US high track wide field of view missile early warning technology test satellite would begin operation after completing in-orbit tests, with a certain hypersonic weapon early warning tracking test ability. As for the space control aspects, the US, Russia, Japan, Canada and other countries continued to strengthen their in-orbit debris clearing, in-orbit operation, and heaven and earth re-shuttle, while space security issues became more complex and changeable. To develop multiplatform ground-, sea- and space-based space situational awareness systems, the US held exercises such as "Space Flag", "Black Sky" and "Global Sentinel 2022" to steadily promote the space situational awareness capability of integrating heaven and earth.
