Grupo Oesía, through its Tecnobit division, continues to demonstrate its experience in electronic design and its high space production capacity, providing a fundamental part of the electronics of the active antennas of two German communication satellites, as it did in the Spanish project Spainsat NG. These state-of-the-art satellites were awarded to Airbus Defence and Space GmbH under a contract with the German Ministry of Defence for its Armed Forces.

Sener has participated in the development of the SpainSat NG-I satellite, which will provide secure communications to the Spanish armed forces. Among other elements, Sener has been responsible of the front-end of the new DRA X-band antennas, both for transmission and reception, which will allow the transmission capacity of current satellites to be multiplied by 16. Sener has provided more than 10,000 pieces of equipment and subsystems on board 1,400 satellites.
On January 14, 2025, SATLANTIS launched the Garai-A microsatellite, marking a new era in Earth Observation. Equipped with the iSIM-90 and iSIM-170 imagers, it offers advanced capabilities like VNIR-SWIR imagery, polarimetry, and video for various EO applications. Through the Iberian Space Partnership with Ceiia and Geosat, it will serve as the precursor to the Atlantic Constellation. After its first month in orbit, payload calibration and automated systems are fully operational. Its successor, Garai-B is set for launch later this year.
INTEGRASYS, líder en soluciones satelitales, desarrolla significativas innovaciones en conciencia situacional espacial y caracterización de satélites. Orbisat, con avanzadas capacidades de detección, rastreo y supervisión de activos espaciales, permite un seguimiento eficaz de satélites en órbitas LEO/MEO/GEO/HEO. Space Master es una herramienta de observación terrestre que utiliza IA/ML para caracterizar objetos en imágenes satelitales ópticas y SAR. De este modo, INTEGRASYS mejora significativamente la gestión del tráfico espacial y la identificación de amenazas potenciales en órbita.
The FoldSat SatCom terminals by Inster, the company hyper-specialised in satellite communications of Grupo Oesía, have passed the operation tests in jammed environments by means of an external GNSS receiver. FoldSat, designed and manufactured by Inster-Oesia Group, is the first foldable and fully ruggedised user terminal on the market to be marketed to operate with the Eutelsat-OneWeb Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellation.
Con el objetivo de asegurar el control de las comunicaciones en el espacio, tanto en el ámbito civil como militar, Indra ha adquirido Hispasat y aumentará su presencia en programas clave para convertirse en un Tier-1 europeo en el sector espacial. Su integración permite sinergias al estandarizar una parte importante de los elementos de las operaciones que realice Indra Space, al aprovechar las capacidades end-to-end de la NewCo de Espacio.
During the visit, his Majesty the King was able to get a first-hand look at some of GMV's most emblematic and groundbreaking projects and see how the company has established itself as a global leader in the space sector. In this field, GMV takes part in large-scale projects with increasing responsibility in recent years, particularly its role as prime contractor in the development of satellite control centers and the management of complete space missions.
ARQUIMEA ha desarrollado el sistema térmico de las antenas activas de los satélites SpainSat NG, utilizando sistemas avanzados de Heat Pipes y Loop Heat Pipes para garantizar un funcionamiento óptimo. Además, se han fabricado y calificado más de cuatro mil microchips resistentes a la radiación y a condiciones extremas, esenciales para el control y telemetría de las antenas. Toda la producción y testeo de los sistemas ha sido realizado in-house, contando con la larga experiencia de los profesionales.
For SPAQUA (SPAnish QUantum Alice) an I+D project financed through the public-private partnership call of the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, we are collaborating with the Institute of Physical and Information Technologies “Leonardo Torres Quevedo” (ITEFI), part of the CSIC. SPAQUA will allow us to advance in the field of quantum key exchange and quantum cryptography (QKD) and participate in the development of secure and decentralized communication networks in the future.
El satélite SpainSat NG-I, fabricado por Airbus, fue lanzado con éxito en enero desde Cabo Cañaveral, Estados Unidos. El satélite de comunicaciones seguras más avanzado de Europa entrará en servicio en órbita geoestacionaria en la segunda mitad de 2025. Operado por Hisdesat para las Fuerzas Armadas españolas, este satélite representa un paso clave para la soberanía española y europea. El innovador sistema de antenas activas de Airbus es parte esencial de la carga útil desarrollada por la industria espacial española.
