Orbit of Babel: SDA developing 'translators' to get data from ISR sats to warfighters - Breaking Defense
"Translator" payloads are necessary because many of today's commercial remote sensing providers do not, and will not, have the ability to equip their satellites with optical inter-satellite links (OISLs) required to link to the agency's Transport Layer birds, said SDA Director Derek Tournear.

These kill vehicles are small like around 4 feet in length and barely weighing 140lbs and the reason I bring this up because I believe the US has been sending kill vehicles into orbit attached to SAT that is now orbiting Earth. It wouldn't surprise me if the US actually has launched the many heavy satellites with some of them being full of kill vehicles.
There has indeed been a hell of a lot of space launches in the recent months, far more than usual. Wonder if there are any DF or XeF lasers up there too.
These kill vehicles have been around since the mid 80's so who knows what is up there and how many.
As for lasers... that's a tough one to guess on. You see publicly how far US military has progress which makes you say no space lasers but then you get into what the US has that isn't public so who knows.
