Working with our colleagues at BAE Systems, we can offer specialist technologies in waveforms, electronics, antennas, digital signal processing and analytics. Our technology supports our customers’ communications, intelligence, imaging and positioning needs in bold and innovative ways.

Alongside our parent company, BAE Systems, we have committed to achieving Net Zero (Scope 1 and 2) emissions by 2030 and are working towards a UK net zero value chain by 2050. We have a published a Carbon Reduction Plan thus publicly declaring our net zero ambitions.

Our Leadership team

On 1st July 2024 a new integrated Space Leadership Team which brought together experienced senior leaders from In-Space Missions and BAE Systems Digital Intelligence was formed. The team is headed up by Director of Space, Doug Liddle, and has over 150 combined team-years of experience in military, institutional and commercial space activities covering Earth Observation, Sat Comms, Navigation, Space Science and Space Exploration.
