Custom Payloads for Specialised Missions

The Payload Development Kit (PDK) further extends payload development to end-users. Enabling the rapid development of other mission-specific payloads. The PDK provides a full set of payload development tools for electrical, mechanical, and software integration. PDK features include:

Supplementary EO/IR Payload – Provides day and night situational awareness when carrying non-optical payloads, and secondary view-angle intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capability.

Secure IP Networking – Leverage the all-digital AES-encrypted network to integrate payload data and controls with a ground station.
