Get SAT, Eutelsat Network Solutions unveil multi‑orbit defense satellite link
Get SAT and Eutelsat Network Solutions announced a strategic partnership to deliver a multi‑orbit satellite communications solution for defence and government users. The offering integrates Get SAT’s compact Aero‑Blade terminals with the OneWeb low‑Earth‑orbit (LEO) network, while retaining connectivity to geostationary (GEO) satellites. The terminals feature an electronically steerable antenna that can switch between LEO and GEO links without rebuilding the platform, providing operators with low latency when needed and wide‑area coverage for mission‑critical data transmission.
The combined system gives users a single, flexible architecture that can automatically select the optimal pathway based on signal quality or operational requirements, enabling seamless fail‑over and reduced dependence on a single orbit provider. Industry analysts see the approach as a potential shift in procurement for defence communications, addressing long‑standing trade‑offs between latency and coverage in satellite‑based tactical networks.
