That's fine, we've got Gallileo and BeiDou now so don't really need GPS that much any more. BeiDou-3 doesn't seem to have the same problems that GPS-III does.
This is a ground component of GPS that assists in getting better fixed and works if GPS is lost.
It's like GPS next but the "next" part isn't working.

It's interesting that we're so afraid of cancelling projects because it's seen as wasteful...and yet deeper we march into the swamp.
Our ability as Americans to run large complex projects sucks apart from nasa and a few national labs.
