Croughton Demonstration – Keep Space for Peace Week 2025


Posted: 5th October 2025

U.S.A.F. Croughton is one of the largest international intelligence hubs. This major U.S. communication and intelligence base supports many US military sites in Europe and is involved in world wide war operations. These include space communications, data links, military drone information, bomber guidance, missile defence, diplomatic communications, and command and control war fighting functions. A connected base is at Barford St John, Banbury, Oxfordshire.

It was a good demonstration and the rain held off!
