Elon Musk’s SpaceX is working to integrate its Starlink satellite technology into the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) national airspace network, according to Bloomberg. The FAA has already begun testing Starlink in select U.S. regions, insiders revealed.
The initiative could disrupt existing contracts, including Verizon’s $2 billion agreement in 2023 to modernize critical communications infrastructure. With Starlink’s expansion, SpaceX may become a key player in government-backed aviation connectivity, raising concerns about Musk’s growing influence in Washington.
Starlink, the satellite internet arm of SpaceX, operates a low-Earth orbit (LEO) network to provide global internet coverage. The company recently partnered with T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) to offer satellite-based cellular services, eliminating the need for Starlink terminals for mobile users.
If SpaceX secures a larger role with the FAA, it could reshape the landscape of U.S. aviation communications, challenging established telecom giants like Verizon (NYSE: VZ). However, regulatory scrutiny may follow, given Musk’s increasing ties to the White House.
As Starlink’s adoption grows, its potential to enhance national airspace connectivity while disrupting legacy telecom contracts remains a focal point for industry watchers.
