Skyloom Completes Deliveries of SDA’s Transport Layer Tranche 1 Optical Communication Terminals for York Space Systems’ Orbital Plane 1

Skyloom Achieves Key Space Technology Industrialization Milestone with the Successful Completion of Optical Communication Terminals Deliveries to York Space Systems for Space Development Agency’s Tranche 1 Transport Layer

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Skyloom Global Corp., a U.S. leader in space-based laser communication technologies, is excited to announce the successful completion of the build and delivery of 42 flight-ready optical communication terminals (OCTs) to York Space Systems (York) as part of the Space Development Agency’s (SDA) Tranche 1 Transport Layer program.

Produced entirely in the United States, these deliveries are a testament to Skyloom’s ongoing commitment to U.S. innovation and industrialization, reinforcing the growing capacity of the American space industry to produce cutting-edge technology at a scale and speed that will power the next generation of Low Earth Orbit satellite networks.

“We are immensely proud that these optical communication terminals are proudly built right here in the United States,” said Marcos Franceschini, co-founder and President of Skyloom. “We would like to extend our deepest thanks to Dirk Wallinger for his thought leadership and the entire team at York for their unwavering support, as well as to SDA for the opportunity to contribute this technology to the U.S. space program. SDA leadership has been instrumental not only in reshaping and strengthening the US Space Industrial base, but also the whole satellite industry. This achievement is not just a U.S. technical victory, but also a strong demonstration of American manufacturing capability to meet the rapid-growing demand of space technology and to support our national security interests.”

“York’s ability to deliver for SDA at scale is made possible by a strong and reliable supply chain, supported by trusted partners like Skyloom,” said Dev Rudra, Chief Supply Chain Officer at York. “Skyloom’s successful delivery of these proven optical communication terminals ensures that our satellites are equipped with reliable, high-performance technology to meet mission demands. This partnership exemplifies our commitment to providing resilient, high-performance spacecraft on schedule, reinforcing York’s role as a trusted provider for national security space missions.”

This milestone represents years of strategic preparation to industrialize optical communication technology, positioning Skyloom as one of the few space technology companies in the world with the capability to manufacture OCTs in high volumes, all within the United States.

With this milestone, Skyloom is well on its way to delivering an additional batch of 42 optical communication terminals to York’s Plane 2.
