Teledyne Defence & Space announced that it will manufacture over 5,000 filters and diplexers to support a space payload application for a large satellite program.

In recognition of the company’s expanding portfolio of space-based products and capabilities, the former Teledyne Defence changed its corporate name to Teledyne Defence & Space last year. According to the company, this new contract award underscores the commitment Teledyne is bringing to space market expansion beyond its historical focus on defense markets.

“For the past year, Teledyne Defense & Space has been investing heavily in both capital projects and staffing to meet and exceed the expectations of our space-based customers. Internally, our ability to bulk-produce complex filters, diplexers, channelizers and more at the most competitive pricing has been key to our growing success in the space market,” said Ian Skiggs, general manager.

Teledyne Defense & Space is a business unit of Teledyne Microwave Solutions, which provides microwave technologies for aerospace, military, commercial, and industrial applications.
