Orbit Communications Systems a leading global provider of maritime and airborne SATCOM terminals, tracking ground station solutions, and mission-critical airborne audio management systems – has been awarded a multi-million contract by a leading integrator in South East Asia – for the supply of OceanTRx 7MIL satellite communication systems for new naval military platforms.

Prior to the signing of the contract, Orbit entered into a teaming agreement with the customer, mainly in the field of maritime satcoms, with plans to explore opportunities for cooperation in other regions and fields, such as ground/airborne satcoms and AMS. The agreement will also facilitate the improvement of local maintenance, service and support capabilities for new and existing customers.

“This teaming agreement is a show of confidence by our customer, continuing, strengthening, and expanding the joint activity of our two companies in the Asian market, and later to other regions/territories,” says Daniel Eshchar, CEO of Orbit Communication Systems. “We are proud that yet another global integrator has decided to purchase Orbit’s unique maritime satcom systems for installation in a world-leading fleet. The OceanTRx 7MIL is the first system operating to MIL Standards that enables simultaneous, continuous communication on several frequencies, even in harsh environmental conditions.”
