Vitesse Systems has combined with Accelint to form a new defense tech company called Lyntris, focused on the connected battlefield.
Both companies have been under the ownership of Trive Capital and are now unified under the name Lyntris, according to a May 11 announcement. The combined company supports defense and national security missions across space, air, land, sea, and cyber and has active roles across more than 200 defense programs.
Vitesse Systems has expertise in sensing hardware, multi-band radio frequency (RF) technologies and integrated satellite payloads. The company has designed RF and microwave antenna systems for commercial operators and government satellite missions including Viasat, Intelsat, Telesat, Iridium, EchoStar, Thuraya, Sky Perfect JSAT, Wideband Global Satcom (WGS), and many others. The company provided L-band antennas for satellites for the Space Development Agency’s Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 Transport layers.
Accelint brings experience in mission systems, AI-enabled decision support, autonomy, and command-and-control (C2).
The combined company is positioned to contribute to improve defense missions by “sensing threats earlier, making sense of complex data faster, and enabling action with greater speed and precision across contested, multi-domain environments,” a statement said.
“Today’s threats move faster, operate across multiple domains at once, and demand technology that the legacy approach can’t deliver,” said Brian Morrison, CEO of Lyntris. “Lyntris was built to help customers solve that problem. By bringing together complementary strengths across hardware, software and mission expertise, we are a company that can connect sensing to action in ways that reduce friction, accelerate decisions and help warfighters operate with greater speed, precision and confidence.”
