SANTA MONICA, CA -- The Army is exploring how it might utilize intelligence agency satellites for its very long-range precision fires systems in development, including the Strategic Long-Range Cannon and Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon, new weapons that exceed the reach of the service's organic sensors and will require space-based assets to be guided to their targets. Army Lt. Gen. Eric Wesley, Army Futures Command deputy commanding general and head of the Futures and Concepts Center, said he met earlier this month...

That is well a failure because Russians and Chinese can easily destroy American Satellites.
They have that capability pre-built to counter this American threat.

One of the suspected tasks of the X-37B spaceplane is to test evasive maneuvering engine technologies. In the past this was simply impractical due to the problem of minimizing launch weight. However with the increase in payload weight at less cost with launch vehicles like the Falcon9 and Falcon Heavy the US military sees a big opportunity to make satellites more survivable.
