Check it out at: https://www.odoo.com/r/Dk7R The U.S. military is testing a concept called orbital resupply, using rockets to deliver gear, ammunition, and critical supplies to troops anywhere on Earth in about 90 minutes. Instead of relying solely on long-range airlift or vulnerable supply lines, the Pentagon wants a system that can move cargo at extreme speed and bypass contested airspace. This video breaks down how rocket cargo and point-to-point space transport would support units operating under fire, in remote locations, or in places where traditional logistics struggle to survive. We also look at why Space Force and the Air Force are investing in the idea now, how reusable launch vehicles make orbital resupply cheaper than ever, and what technical and operational problems still stand in the way. From launch preparation and reentry accuracy to recovery in hostile terrain, rocket cargo has big promises and bigger challenges. Here’s what the system could actually do for U.S. forces, and what it would take to make it real. 00:00 - Intro 01:00 - Ad Read 02:00 - Space is cheap(er) now 03:58 - How would rocket cargo work? 06:25 - Why is rocket cargo a solution? 10:20 - Rocket cargo challenges 14:11 - The future of logistics 16:43 - Channel updates Written by: David Roza Edited by: Savvy Task & Purpose is a military news and culture-oriented channel.
