 In a CNN article, President Elon Musk says the satellite starlink was never intended to be used for military-like purposes. Ukranians have altered the satellite which was not a part of the agreement with SpaceX.  The satellite was originally created to monitor our planet and provides thousands of individual services. 

SpaceX and the Pentagon held discussions about a possible deal for military units, according to people familiar with the conversations.

On February 8th SpaceX officials indicated at least part of those conversations had ended.
