Australia is looking to improve its presence in space with a focus on communications and creating a dedicated segment of its defence forces committed to the domain.

An iGov spokesperson commented on the award, saying, ‘We look forward to a successful contract and to our continued goal to provide our customers with exceptional ISR technology capabilities. We offer a great supporting team of ISR OEMs and specialty subcontractors with unique ISR expertise’.
