Abstract
The introduction of the Navstar Global Positioning System (GPS) to the military community is having a lesser known, but highly significant, impact on these systems, dissemination of precise time and frequency. Precise time/frequency and their uses could have a wider ranging influence on military electronic systems than the positioning/navigation aspects. The implications are not as well known or recognized. The paper will briefly summarize the area of precise time and frequency uses in military systems as a prelude to describing the relationship of GPS in this area. GPS operations and possible applications will also be described
