GPS World spoke with Col. Wesley A. Ballenger, Jr. (CB), Commander,
GPS Wing, Space and Missile Systems Center, U.S. Air Force, in his
office on January 31.

Alan Cameron (AC): How does the schedule stand now for launches of the
remaining five IIR-M satellites?
CB: The next launch is planned for September 2007, then we have
December 2007, March 2008, June 2008, and September 2008. However,
we're also concerned about having sufficient resources to do all
those launches, and we realize that some of those could end up
spilling three months or so into government fiscal year 2009 [begins
October 2008]. That's the sort of thing we're paying real close
attention to right now.
AC: What are the implications of that schedule for reception and use
of L2C? Of the new military signals? And for the IIF launch schedule?
