CACI Completes Review for Planned 2023 Satellite Launch
CACI International Inc has successfully completed the Critical Design Review for its DemoSat small satellite program, aiming for a launch in early 2023. The initiative will deploy two mission payloads—alternative positioning, navigation, and timing (APNT) and tactical intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (TacISR)—to low earth orbit. Partnering with York Space Systems, CACI aims to enhance military capabilities with advanced techniques in remote sensing and real-time geolocation, establishing its role in the competitive space sector.
- Completion of the Critical Design Review for DemoSat program, indicating readiness for launch.
- Partnership with York Space Systems to enhance payload capabilities.
- Demonstration of advanced technologies like precision two-way time transfer and real-time RF geolocation.
- None.
CACI to launch its precision navigation and timing (PNT) and tactical intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) payloads into low earth orbit.
“CACI expertise, systems, and technology help our customers maintain dominance in the increasingly contested space environment,” said
Both payloads are built on flexible, upgradable software-defined radio (SDR) hardware. The APNT payload showcases CACI’s advanced precision two-way time transfer (TWTT) and clock modeling technology, demonstrating low size, weight, and power (SWaP) space based PNT for synchronization and timing that significantly improves multi-platform remote sensing. The TacISR payload identifies and captures key signals of interest (SOI) and operates with CACI’s Beast ground receiver to demonstrate real-time radiofrequency (RF) geolocation for deployed
