EID to unveil new vehicle communication system at DSEI
The Portuguese company’s naval communications system is in service across more than a dozen countries. It has turned to its home nation for support in developing a new vehicle based C2 system.
Astro Aerospace has successfully completed the Preliminary Design Review (PDR) of the L-band reflectors for two Inmarsat-6 series satellites, Northrop Grumman announced on 9 August.
Astro Aerospace will now continue maturing the reflectors' design in preparation for the Critical Design Review later this year.
The nine-metre unfurlable mesh antenna reflectors will support the Inmarsat-6 satellites' ability to provide mobile connections to air, land and sea assets.
John A Alvarez, general manager, Astro Aerospace, said: ‘Astro Aerospace’s unique AstroMesh technology is well suited for Inmarsat-6’s L-band capacity, which is significantly greater than the capacity of previous satellites and capable of supporting a new generation of more advanced L-band services.
‘AstroMesh deployable mesh reflectors are made of the lightest and stiffest materials available, making them well suited for such missions.’
