I can't speak for the USAF, but in the Army in Iraq (Balad - 40 miles north of Baghdad) we had 24/7 internet connection via sat uplink interrupted only when a tracked vehicle would drive by and break the cable between our office and the sat station.

The USAF historically having it far better than the Army - I don't think you have anything to worry about. And they don't have tracked vehicles.
