Anti-Satellite Weapons – Current Status

Marek Czajkowski



Abstract

This article is a follow-on to the text this author published in 2021, which contained his view on the state of and prospects for anti-satellite (ASAT) weapons. It aims to review previous findings and predictions, update information on emerging ASAT weapons systems, and provide new strategic assessment relating to the possible development of anti-satellite weapons. The main hypothesis is that anti-satellite weapons are impractical, so the main space powers will most probably not pursue deploying strategically significant quantities of these weapons. The methodology applied in this research rests on qualitative analysis, which will be performed through discourse analysis and content analysis.

Keywords:

international security, space security, counterspace measures, counterspace weapons, ASAT weapons, anti-satellite weapons
