      UltiSat, a Speedcast company, was awarded a multi-year, multi-million dollar subcontract in support of Sierra Nevada (SNC) to provide Airborne Satcom-on-the-Move (SOTM) solution design, selection, and systems integration for Airborne Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (AISR) programs onboard a King Air 350ER aircraft. This airborne system kit will support delivery of Multi-Intelligence (INT) sensor payload information through near real-time satellite communications.

      “UltiSat was and continues to be a critical, trusted partner in the aircraft integration and overall aircraft Systems Acceptance Testing efforts,” said SNC Senior Program Director Bill Leonard.

      “Our Mobility team made a commitment several years ago to increase our focus on supporting Airborne ISR programs and missions where our technology-agnostic Communications-on-the-Move (COTM) solutions and systems integration capabilities are the best in the industry. We are exceptionally proud that our subject matter experts and unique solution for the King Air 350ER won the confidence of SNC and their customers as the best value for their important missions,” said Ultisat Executive Vice President (EVP) or ISR and Mobility Solutions Garr Stephenson.
