SES Government Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SES, launches tactiXs, a mission-specific managed service platform, in partnership with Network Innovations and GovSat.

“Our new service platform is a non-preemptible alternative to WGS that can handle the most tactical-edge customers’ data and mission requirements, and with no lead time required can be set up within hours for the mission at hand,” said president and CEO of SES Government Solutions, brigadier general Pete Hoene, USAF (retired). “We are proud to partner with both Network Innovations and GovSat as we understand the demand for reliable, uncontended bandwidth and we are excited to bring this innovative and secure solution to the market.”

The full end-to-end managed service provides practical, cost-effective solutions to mission parameters by allowing the customer to purchase a volume-based Mbps service, as opposed to MHz bandwidth agreements, whilst ensuring the security and performance of the connectivity service. Leveraging the GovSat-1 satellite, tactiXs delivers secure, non-preemptible X-band capacity to customers on an on-demand basis across any domain or austere environment in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.

Utilizing high-powered, steerable spot beams that can be quickly repositioned to provide robust coverage makes this solution well suited for any US military or government-based mission as well, whether it be comms-on-the-move or comms-on-the-pause.

tactiXs can support a myriad of use cases required by military users, including covert missions and various types of special ops. The GovSat-1 satellite connectivity is ideally paired with the capabilities of the tactiXs platform and has all the key attributes of MILSATCOM such as anti-jam, encrypted telemetry & control, and secure beam steering & control. It can also augment the wideband global SATCOM system (WGS) with secure X- and Mil Ka-band capabilities.
