Against the backdrop of a full-scale war, the issue of reliable communications in Ukraine has become critical, especially in frontline and near-frontline zones. In these conditions, the vulnerability of traditional communication channels to enemy electronic warfare (EW) systems has become a key challenge. The response to this threat has been the emergence of the first domestic satellite terminal — UASAT.
The UASAT GEO 74 satellite terminal is the flagship product of Ukrainian engineers, designed from scratch to operate in conditions of constant threat from the enemy. The main emphasis is on immunity to interference and signal stability even in an environment of active electronic warfare. That is why more than 65% of the terminal's use cases are stationary deployment in combat zones.
The technical specifications are also impressive:
-
Output speed - up to 100 Mbps,
-
Download speed — up to 5 Mbps,
-
Power consumption is only 30 W,
-
Autonomous operation without power supply - up to 3 hours.
These parameters allow for video communication, transmission of large amounts of data, coordination of units, and remote work in combat conditions.
One of the most important aspects of UASAT is local production. All components and assembly are carried out in Ukraine, which guarantees quality control, no dependence on imports, and prompt delivery in wartime conditions.
The developers have already announced plans for 2025: more than 50 thousand devices will be produced and connected throughout Ukraine — both for the military and for critical infrastructure.
The launch of UASAT is not only a technical breakthrough, but also a strategic event for national security. For the first time, a domestic alternative to international satellite systems, in particular Starlink, has appeared, which until now have been virtually the only reliable option for the army and volunteers.
In wartime, when issues of autonomy and control over critical infrastructure are paramount, the emergence of UASAT demonstrates that Ukraine is capable of independently solving the most complex engineering tasks — even in the rear, even on the front line.
