Ovzon’s proprietary satellite Ovzon 3 has now, after a five-month journey in space, reached its orbital position in the geostationary arc. Initial tests have been conducted by the manufacturing partner Maxar, and the satellite, including the Ovzon On-Board-Processor, will soon be handed over to Ovzon for further in-orbit testing. The satellite is expected to enter commercial service mid-year 2024; all according to plan.
Earlier in the second quarter 2024, Ovzon announced two new SATCOM-as-a-Service offerings for the Ovzon 3 satellite, tailored to meet customers’ needs for performance, mobility, and resiliency. The new services, Ovzon Pegasus and Ovzon Orion, are based on the unique technology and capabilities of the Ovzon 3 satellite and the Ovzon On-Board-Processor.
We expect the satellite to enter service within a few short weeks. We continue to experience a rising interest from a broadening customer base in the unique features found only in the Ovzon Pegasus and Ovzon Orion services offered with Ovzon 3. Ovzon 3-based SATCOM-as-a-Service will bring unmatched performance, mobility, and resiliency to the market when the world needs it the most.
Back on planet Earth, our primary focus continues to be on preparing our customers and partners for commercial and operational use of Ovzon 3’s unique capabilities. We are 100% dedicated to showing and preparing how to leverage what the Ovzon 3 SATCOM-as-a-Service solution delivers.
These are indeed exciting times for our company as we grow, develop, implement, and explore new opportunities and collaborations, and for the Swedish Space Industry. The future holds promising ventures and advancements, and we are thrilled to be at the forefront of this transformative journey.
