How satcom is shaping the future of fast, accurate warfare

This episode is brought to you in partnership with Amazon Kuiper Government Solutions

‘Speed is the key advantage and accuracy is the key outcome’: Amazon Kuiper Government Solutions’ Rick Freeman talks to Shephard’s Georgia Lewis about how space-as-a-service is transforming defence connectivity and access to satellite capabilities.

As militaries seek faster, more accurate decision-making across increasingly complex battlespaces, satcom services are becoming increasingly essential. The growing demand for real-time data and resilient connectivity is driving interest in new delivery models – including space-as-a-service.

Amazon’s Project Kuiper is working with government customers to expand access to space in ways that reduce costs and risks without sacrificing speed or accuracy. Its satellite services, available on a subscription basis, aim to keep pace with fast-moving technologies and the changing demands of modern warfare.

Rick Freeman, who is president of Amazon Kuiper Government Solutions (KGS), explains how the company’s satellite technologies are designed to integrate into networked battle systems – and why educating military leaders on the value of innovation is a continuing challenge.
