    Doesn’t the United States already have military communication satellites? If they wanted to give network connectivity to Ukranian drones, I’m pretty sure they could have done so as well.

      bandwidth/latency might be an issue, but I’m not sure since I’m not an expert

        I think it probably has more to do with not wanting to escalate to a direct war against Russia or give them a reason to try to shoot down satellites.
