Space Systems, Products and Services

Communications. Navigation. Weather predictions. Global defense. Search and rescue. Scientific discovery. General Dynamics C4 Systems creates space solutions to enable capabilities in all these areas. We offer end-to-end systems integration, security engineering and information assurance expertise and products using leading edge technologies and trusted innovation that provides our customers a space system solution — ground to space, core to edge.

Ground Solutions

We’ve been providing ground-based solutions for more than 30 years to bring the value of satellite systems in space down to the users on Earth. They include:

  • Integrating satellite ground networks for communication and navigation such as the U.S. Navy’s Mobile User Objective System (MUOS)
     
  • Delivering essential satellite and mission operations support for NASA's Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) and the U.S. Navy’s Naval Satellite Operations Center (NAVSOC)
     
  • Satellite antennas for fixed and mobile communications
     
  • Creating customized SATCOM solutions for federal and military customers utilizing the Iridium® global communications system
     
  • State-of-the-art SpacePlex® space and communications services facility in Las Cruces, N.M., providing customers satellite engineering, command/control, satellite monitoring and back-up services, teleport services, network management, data management and operational maintenance support.

Space Encryption Solutions

General Dynamics C4 Systems is a leader in the design, development and manufacturing of state-of-art space encryption products needed for mission-critical applications.

General Dynamics C4 Systems’ space-based encryptors are successfully employed in numerous space missions. Our high-speed, space-based, Type 1-certified encryptors, and corresponding ground encryptors, are suited for large bandwidth data transmission. We also support the special encryption and protections needed for Telemetry, Tracking, and Control (TT&C) communications. We are exploring the application and space-qualification of our ground-based HAIPE® encryptor technologies for in-space HAIPE needs.

With a commitment to mission responsiveness, creative thinking and technical innovation, General Dynamics C4 Systems is leading the effort to transform the next generation of space systems with affordable, reliable, secured and timely solutions for our customers and end users around the world.
