The U.K military is about to upgrade their Skynet 4 satellite system to Skynet 5 :
"Four steerable antennas give it the ability to focus bandwidth on to particular locations where it is most needed - where British forces are engaged in operations. Its technologies have also been designed to resist any interference - attempts to disable or take control of the spacecraft - and any efforts to eavesdrop on sensitive communications. An advanced receive antenna allows the spacecraft to selectively listen to signals and filter out attempts to "jam" it."
Among the many features the new system introduces, two are worth mentioning - it's targeted bandwidth capability where it's needed and the sort of DENY:ALL upgraded receive antenna to avoid jamming. Now pray China won't take it down, or let the debris (conveniently) take care of the rest -- so vulnerable it makes you want to establish a space warfare code of conduct.
