The novelty of the Maxar space company has overcome the main problem

Maxar Technologies Ltd. (MAXR) has solved the problem by supplying components for the new Ovzon 3 communications satellite. Satellite assembly and space communications are playing an increasingly important role in Maxar’s strategy, so this topic is the focus of the company’s shareholders. The Ovzon 3 satellite by the Swedish telecom operator Ovzon. This satellite is smaller and lighter than geostationary communications satellites, so the cost of putting it into orbit is less. In addition, it could be easily integrated with different rockets and cargo to launch as a secondary payload. 

All this expands this platform’s potential range of customers, so Maxar must demonstrate the advantage of its technologies. However, the launch was due to delays in the supply of spare parts. In particular, Honeywell was unable to provide a gyroscope in time. The problem has, and the satellite is entering the final assembly stage—the launch between December 2022 and February 2023. Delays cannot be called a joyous event. Still, simultaneously, the postponement of the launch will allow Maxar to demonstrate the possibility of a simple adaptation of its satellite to different payloads. 

For Maxar, the Ovzon 3 production contract is essential for a new generation satellite — flexible in use and capable of relaying signals from different telecom operators and processing information directly on board using an integrated processor. The demand for such satellites will increase in the coming decades, as they allow you to organize a business better adapted to changing demands. In particular, Ovzon three can receive data from different terminals, work with regions of natural disasters through storm clouds and heavy rains, and can be reprogrammed remotely for other tasks
