Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ: GILT, TASE: GILT), a worldwide leader in satellite networking technology, solutions, and services, announced today that its Commercial Division has been awarded more than $60 million in orders from a leading satellite operator for its Stellar Blu ESA Sidewinder in-flight connectivity terminals. Deliveries are expected in the next 12 months.
