      I don’t think Ukraine has the resources to create, deploy, and operate its own satellite Internet network.

        Surely the US has a satellite network they clould be making use off? Maybe there’s political reasons why they cant be given access.

          The US does have its own satellite network, but it’s unlikely they’d let anyone else use it, even allies, because of the risk of leaking information, or even because it would let other people derive more information about its capabilities and limits.

          The revolutionary aspect is the quantity of the satellites and the affordability of access due to reduction in deployment costs.
