Northrop Grumman to Highlight Affordable, Protected Military Satellite Communications at SATELLITE 2013
15 Mars 2013 - 8:06PM
Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE:NOC) will highlight products and
initiatives for affordable, protected military satellite
communications during SATELLITE 2013, March 18–21, in Washington,
D.C.
Capabilities featured at the company's exhibit – No. 7057 at the
Washington Convention Center – bridge the gap between today's
capabilities and tomorrow's needs and include:
- Protected communication payloads the company builds for
Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) military communication
satellites
- Hosted payloads for the Enhanced Polar System (EPS), which will
provide continuous coverage for secure, jam-resistant, strategic
and tactical military satellite communications in the North Polar
Region, and
- New Low Cost Terminals that provide affordable protected
satellite communications for tactical fighting forces.
"During SATELLITE 2013, Northrop Grumman will show how it is
leveraging the government's investment in protected communication
technologies to deliver innovative and affordable capabilities for
strategic and tactical users," said Tim Frei, vice president,
Communication Systems, Northrop Grumman Aerospace
Systems.
The company recently delivered the first of two protected
communications payloads for the U.S. Air Force's EPS. The extremely
high frequency (EHF) payload leverages protected communications
technologies the company developed for the Air Force's AEHF
satellite payloads on a smaller scale to meet reduced mission
requirements for EPS.
Low Cost Terminals address a long-standing military requirement
for affordable technologies and systems that provide anti-jam and
secure technologies for tactical fighting forces in theatre. An
industry team composed of Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin and
TeleCommunication Systems plans to provide these terminals at a
cost significantly below currently fielded EHF terminals.
A presentation about the company's protected satellite
communication affordability initiatives will be given Wed., March
20, at 10:30 a.m. in the main exhibit hall by Greg Edlund,
director, Communication Systems, Northrop Grumman Aerospace
Systems.
Northrop Grumman has provided sophisticated and robust protected
satellite communications payloads with increasing, highly secure
connectivity to U.S. military forces for nearly 30 years. As the
only company with this capability, Northrop Grumman delivers
survivable communications that help achieve information
superiority.
Northrop Grumman is a leading global security company providing
innovative systems, products and solutions in unmanned systems,
