Northrop Grumman has broken ground on a new expansion of its satellite engineering and manufacturing operations facilities in Arizona.
The expansion includes a 100,000 square foot addition to its existing satellite manufacturing facility and a new 120,000 square foot administrative and engineering building.
The enlarged facility will double the current production capacity at the satellite manufacturing site, while the new administrative and engineering building will be a two-story structure complementing an existing office facility built three years ago.
The facilities will enable the site to meet projected business growth and increased customer demand for high-quality, flight-proven satellites for NASA and the US Department of Defense, as well as commercial and international customers.
The airborne three-domain, the two ground-based and the ¼ ATR OpenVPX-based cross-domain systems were engineered to provide real-time security across multi-domain operations.
DARPA’s Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC) programme was set up to develop an autonomous tactical network and enable critical data flow in contested environments.
Why space is an essential part of modern military capabilities
Defence-secure mixed reality headsets can save hours, or even weeks, of travel time to fix defunct equipment or get subject experts effectively “on-site” where they are needed.
The Joint Counter Radio-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device Electronic Warfare (JCREW) counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) and Drone Restricted Access Using Known Electromagnetic Warfare (DRAKE) counter-UAS (CUAS) systems are mounted and dismounted RF jammers.
