Safran Electronics & Defense has completed its acquisition of Syrlinks, a French mid-sized firm founded in 2011 that specializes in radiocommunications and radionavigation, primarily for the space sector, and positioning, navigation and timing (PNT).
Through this acquisition, Safran Electronics & Defense continues to consolidate its position as an original equipment manufacturer delivering sovereign space solutions. Building on its world-renowned expertise in ground stations for space communications, Safran Electronics & Defense rounds out its portfolio with Syrlinks’ onboard satellite communications systems to extend its coverage of the complete ground-space communications sector.
Syrlinks also offers proven expertise in resilient GNSS and miniature atomic clocks to complement that of Safran Electronics & Defense. This will further strengthen Safran Electronics & Defense’s unique integrated positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) capabilities, which come into their own when satellite navigation systems are inadvertently or intentionally disrupted in civil or military environments.
