Defense Network Solutions for DoD Contracts
Hughes provides secure, innovative defense network solutions for the DoD.
Whether for R&D or actual service deployment, the opportunities for multi-orbit, multi-transport communications for the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) loom large for the industry. Yet, few DoD contractors possess all the necessary engineering skillsets, implementation capabilities and network management expertise in-house to meet the requirements of any one RFI or RFP.
To help you fill in the gaps in your defense network solutions, Hughes offers a range of capabilities to defense contractor partners – from custom-engineered technologies to systems integration to outsourced network management. For example:
- Boeing chose Hughes for open architecture, containerized software design in support of an anti-jam satellite communications capability for the Air Force’s Protected Tactical Enterprise Service (PTES) program
- General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) selected Hughes to customize the airborne Hughes HM series modem for the U.K.’s SkyGuardian platform
- Together with SES, Hughes demonstrated multi-orbit SATCOM for remotely piloted aircraft for GA-ASI, pairing the Hughes HM series modem and Resource Management System (RMS) with SES Geostationary Orbit (GEO) and Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites
For decades, Hughes has led the SATCOM industry in developing and deploying cutting-edge technologies and solutions that put information within reach securely in every domain. We can do the same for you with:
- Multi-transport terminal capabilities that break down SATCOM silos
- Software-defined networks with artificial Intelligence (AI) built-in for responsiveness and self-repair
- Ruggedized solutions with optimized Size, Weight, Power (SWaP) and functionality
- Airborne beyond-line-of-sight connectivity through the blades of a rotorcraft or aboard a fixed-wing RPA
- Mobile 4G deployments with satellite backhaul for global connectivity anywhere
- Standalone 5G networks for cutting-edge connectivity at DoD facilities
