Germany-based LEO satellite operator Rivada Space Network has announced a partnership with Thai Aerospace Industries (TAO) to provide connectivity service to General Aviation, Corporate, and Government throughout military sectors inside and outside Thailand.

Rivada has been touting the OuterNET’s security features enabled by its constellation’s mesh architecture that uses optical lasers to interconnect the satellites, each of which has onboard routing and switching capabilities. Rivada’s OuterNETTM, its global low-latency point-to-point network of 600 low earth orbit (LEO) satellites, is a next-generation constellation combing inter-satellite laser links with advanced onboard processing that provide unique routing and switching capabilities, to create an optical mesh network in space.
