COMSATBw-1 is a secure relay platform that will play an important role in the German Bundeswehr’s (German armed forces) concept for network-centric operations. It is to handle secure information for use by units on deployed missions – including voice, fax, data, video and multimedia applications – as the backbone of a strategic command infrastructure and interface with the tactical arms of the German Armed Forces. The overall industrial responsibility for this secure communication program is with Milsat Services (a 75% Astrium/25% subsidiary of ND SatCom Defence).
