GPS won't be available to China.

I am going to assume that you know how many GPS satellites that there are in service and how many reserves that we have.

Further I will postulate that you know that China has proven that they can shoot down satellites.

Finally, if China is practicing a global fighting war without satellites and the US is not then which country is screwed?

I am aware of the satellites we have. We can turn them off to everybody and the Military can still use them.

We have work-arounds as well.

What height was the satellite at which was shot down?

What height do the GPS satellites sit at?

A billion mouths to feed is a liability. All we have to do is take out some of their food & water supplies...

Cheers!
