Space Force's first targeting squadron brought to life - EndtheMadnessNow - 08-26-2023

The unit's occult patch was also unveiled at its activation ceremony, revealing it to be adorned with a grim reaper with a glint in its eye and a delta shape for a nose. According to a Space Force statement, the delta represents "historic ties to the earliest days of the U.S. Air Force space community" as well as "all variations of space vehicles" that support the U.S. military.

Quote:PETERSON SPACE FORCE BASE, Colo. – The 75th Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Squadron was activated as a unit under Space Delta 7 - Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, during a ceremony Aug. 11, 2023, at Peterson Space Force Base, Colorado.


During the activation ceremony, U.S. Space Force Col. Brett Swigert, DEL 7 commander, presented Lt. Col. Travis Anderson with the ceremonial guidon, representing the first assignment of authority from the delta commander to the 75th ISRS’s first commander.

“Today is a monumental time in the history of our service,” said Anderson. “The idea of this unit began four years ago on paper and has probably been in the minds of several U.S. Air Force intelligence officers even longer.”

The 75th ISRS has three primary mission focuses: target analysis, target development and target engagement. Their goal is to prepare and present intelligence packages about a target and the system it is a part of. That could include information about a satellite, a ground station, or the signal in between.

“The 75th ISRS conducts advanced analysis on adversary space force and counterspace force threats along with their associated architectures,” said Anderson. “Space forces are space capabilities used by a country to facilitate their joint warfighting. Counterspace forces, also called space attack forces, are space capabilities designed to deny the United States the ability to use our satellite systems during conflict.”

According to Master Sgt. Desiree Cabrera, 75th ISRS operations superintendent, the new squadron is the first and only targeting unit dedicated to supporting the U.S. Space Force and its missions.

"Over the past year, the senior enlisted leader, Senior Master Sgt. Cristy Duncan, along with the first assigned members of the targeting team, led Space Delta 7’s Operating Location-Bravo using an innovative approach to build the foundation and organizational structure of today’s 75th ISRS.” said Cabrera. “Not only are we standing up the sole targeting squadron in the U.S. Space Force, we are changing the way targeting is done across the joint community when it comes to space and electromagnetic warfare.”

The 75th ISRS - the latest addition to the "mighty watchful eye" lauded in the Space Force official song.




In June, the US Space Force also announced it will launch a constellation of countersurveillance satellites with the codename "Silent Barker". These are designed to track Chinese and Russian space vehicles in order to defend US assets in space.

I kinda like the patch, hopefully it strikes fear into the hearts of the bugs when we land on their planet.

"I'm doing my part!"

LOL. Reptilian reaper! One of the few times I enjoyed spilling coffee on myself after seeing your post. Laughing Number One

There is another older division that used the grim reaper patch. I think Air Force. I gotta find it.
