Israel: Compact SATCOM Solution for Military

The Israeli company ‘Orbit Communication Systems’, based in Netanya, is one of the global leaders in ground, airborne and maritime communications, satellite tracking, and ground-station technology, revolutionising global connectivity with cutting-edge solutions for the new space era. Orbit is publicly traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and is under the control of the FIMI Investment Fund. 

Today, the company announced the launch of the Multi-Purpose SATCOM Terminal ‘MPT30Ka SATCOM On-The-Move’ (SOTM), its most compact satellite communication system available for military vehicles, maritime vessels and rapid deployment.

The Pain and the Solution

In the press release, the company explains the claim, the pain and the solution: “Nowadays, military mobile platforms are increasingly equipped with a wide range of payloads, including radars, weapon systems and advanced sensors. This creates a significant demand for compact SATCOM solutions that minimise their footprint without compromising on performance. The MPT30Ka SOTM addresses this operational requirement by delivering a low-power consumption system and compact design, yet maintains uninterrupted, high-capacity connectivity. The system meets multiple military standards, such as MIL-STD-461G/810G/1275, making it fully resilient to electromagnetic interference. Thus, it ensures continuous and secure communication even when radars and electronic systems are simultaneously active, and maintains reliable operation in harsh and demanding terrain conditions, guaranteeing mission success anytime and anywhere.”
