Comtech Telecommunications announced that its command and control technologies group, which is part of its government solutions segment, received orders totaling approximately $24 million by an unnamed international space agency for the design, development and installation of multiple launch vehicle tracking stations in the South Pacific. These stations will provide mission supports for newly developed launch vehicle technologies, and Comtech anticipates deliveries pursuant to these contracts to occur over the next two years.

“The automated and remote technologies we have developed for these new stations will allow the international space agency to provide more cost effective launch services to their customers throughout the world,” said Fred Kornberg, president and chief executive officer of Comtech.
