Horizon Technologies has reported £4+ million in additional orders for the company’s FlyingFish™ airborne, Sat Phone SIGINT systems to NATO end-users.
The orders consist of a total package including Group A kit and ILS support for a variety of airborne ISR platforms.
Horizon Technologies remains on track to launch their first Amber™ smallsat next year and is working with the company’s UK and international partners on planning for additional launches to commence quickly after the Amber-1 smallsat is on-orbit.
Amber™ is a space-based Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) intelligence system and is part of a public/private partnership with the UK Government.
