Elite troops push hard for better satellite info
According to Lt. Gen. Kevin Campbell, commander of the U.S. Army Space & Missile Defense Command, 80 percent of satellite intelligence and photos for the Pentagon come from commercial space imaging companies and 20 percent from military satellites.
"We would like to get that figure down to around 50 to 60 percent commercial, with the balance being around 40 to 50 percent" military satellites, Campbell said.
