Redwire Corporation, one of the leaders in space infrastructure for the next-generation space economy, announced that its L-Band Link 16 Helical Antenna technology successfully demonstrated the transmission of a Link 16 signal from space. The Link 16 waveform provides a tactical advantage for the warfighter by enabling the transmission of rapid and secure communications directly to the battlefield, speeding decision-making cycles. This is a major milestone for the future development of tactical warfighter networks in space.<\/p>\n
The antenna system was developed by Redwire for an undisclosed national security customer. Redwire was responsible for the system design, testing, manufacturing, and flight hardware deliveries of three Link 16 antennas. The antennas will enable beyond line-of-sight communications for the warfighter using the Link 16 tactical network, a military tactical data link network designed to provide warfighters operating on land, in the air, and at sea with secure, anti-jam communications.<\/p>\n
\u201cRedwire is proud to contribute to this transformative achievement that advances crucial capabilities for our nation\u2019s defense,\u201d said Redwire Space Systems President Adam Biskner<\/strong>. \u201cThis demonstration underscores that Redwire is delivering capabilities critical to space development that are proven and effective.\u201d<\/p>\n The successful Link 16 demonstration comes as Redwire prepares to deliver more L-Band antennas to another national security customer.<\/p>\n These successful milestones build from Redwire\u2019s years of antenna and RF systems development for industry and military customers. Redwire\u2019s antennas and RF systems are manufactured in the company\u2019s recently expanded Longmont, Colorado facility, which has a factory capacity to deliver in excess of 120 antennas per year. These antennas are part of Redwire\u2019s rapidly growing antenna and RF payload portfolio. Redwire\u2019s antenna technology was selected for the original pathfinder mission to demonstrate this waveform from space.<\/p>\n Click here to learn about Satellite Antennas from various manufacturers listed on SATNow.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Redwire Corporation, one of the leaders in space infrastructure for the next-generation space economy, announced that its L-Band Link 16 Helical Antenna technology successfully demonstrated the transmission of a Link 16 signal from space.
