Indra Group takes European space capabilities to a new level to strengthen defence and security

Indra Group is giving a strong boost to its space activity to position itself as a key player in Europe, strengthening its most advanced capabilities in Earth Observation missions, secure communications and geopositioning systems, space surveillance and protection of strategic assets. These technologies are key to strengthening security and operational effectiveness in complex environments and are designed to provide tactical and strategic superiority in the land, air, sea and space domains. 

With the creation of Indra Space, Indra Group is moving forward to become one of the continent's largest companies in the space domain, with the capacity to cover the entire value chain of space projects, from mission design, through satellite development and manufacturing, ground segment design and deployment, to mission operations. 

One of its cutting-edge solutions is the Mini4EO satellite, a space-based signals intelligence platform designed to respond effectively in high-performance Earth observation missions and notable for its pointing accuracy and object tracking. It facilitates rapid deployment and adapts to a wide variety of security and defence operations, such as border surveillance, monitoring of illegal activities, tracking of strategic movements and support for missions in remote areas. 

Indra Group also provides advanced space surveillance and tracking (SST) capabilities, essential for improving situational awareness against the threat of spy satellites and protecting critical strategic assets. Its systems enable the analysis of objects in all orbital regimes in order to assess collision risk and monitor space debris. In addition, it develops solutions to secure communications in space, which are increasingly important in the military and civil sectors. 

Another of its innovative systems is NAVISHIELD, an advanced protection solution for GNSS satellite navigation systems, equipped with a state-of-the-art CRPA antenna to guarantee the integrity of critical navigation signals, including Galileo PRS, Galileo OS and GPS, against interference and signal spoofing, ensuring the reliability of positioning operations. 

With its state-of-the-art technology, Indra Group strengthens its position as a leading supplier of space technology for defence, committed to innovation and national and European technological sovereignty.
