Comtech Telecommunications Corp. has received a follow-on space components award valued at more than 5 million dollars to support a major civil space exploration program in the United States. The award underlines the companys role as a global communications technology supplier to both commercial and government space customers.

Under the contract, Comtech will deliver advanced electronic components and related component engineering services to a leading U.S. aerospace and defense prime contractor. Working with that prime, Comtech will help provide next generation technologies that support U.S. efforts to explore new regions of the lunar surface.

Comtech describes the program as a critical civil space initiative focused on human space exploration, and the new award builds on the companys long running participation in high profile missions. Company executives emphasize that the follow-on contract reflects strong customer confidence in Comtechs ability to deliver mission critical microelectronics and engineering support.

Daniel Gizinski, President of Comtechs Satellite and Space Communications Segment, said the company is honored to be part of the effort. He noted that Comtech has more than 50 years of experience supplying space engineering services and end to end microelectronics to customers across the global space sector.

Gizinski also pointed to macro trends that are expected to support continued demand for space components. Citing independent industry analysis, Comtech referenced projections that the global space economy could reach roughly 1.8 trillion dollars by 2035, creating new opportunities for component suppliers and engineering service providers.

As an end to end microelectronics supplier, Comtech has supported space bound missions since 1976, providing parts procurement and supply chain management for a wide range of spacecraft and space systems. The company notes that organizations such as NASA and the U.S. Department of Defense are among those that rely on Comtech for the management of critical space components.

In addition to its space components activities, Comtech offers satellite and space communications technologies, terrestrial and wireless network solutions, Next Generation 911 and emergency services platforms, and cloud native capabilities. The company positions these businesses as part of a broader portfolio of mission critical communications solutions that leverage its global presence and multi decade technology heritage.

Comtech reports that it continues to invest in innovation and employee driven development across its product lines, aiming to address evolving customer requirements in both government and commercial markets. Its leaders view the latest civil space components award as further evidence that the companys strategy in high reliability microelectronics and system support is resonating with key space industry partners.

For more information about Comtechs space components business, the company directs interested parties to its website, where it highlights its capability in providing EEE components and parts for space applications. That business forms part of Comtechs broader satellite and space communications segment, which also supports satellite communications infrastructure and related technologies.
