Sad, sad possibility, the congressional budget office is proposing
killing GPS IIIB/C, arguing the new features aren't essential for
military purposes.

Given the state of the US federal debt and deficit and the high
reliability and availability of GPS, there is no urgency to spend more
money.

While it might annoy those with an interest in the advancement of GPS,
it is not a priority. The more advanced birds can wait for greener
times - although there are few bets that there will be greener times in
the US budget morass.
