>So why do you need an encrypted global positioning system independent of NATO - unless you want your own defense force.
Suggest you read the history of Galileo. At the time GPS was for the US military, civilian usage was secondary. Yes, you could for a fee gain access to the high res.. signals, but these still came with the US military first caveat - ie. the US reserved the right to modify (as it has done over the years) signals to give false positional data. If you want to build reliable commercial applications and you are non-US you can't rely on GPS.
