Los Angeles CA (SPX) Sep 11, 2024
PathFinder Digital has been awarded a contract by the United States Air Force to supply its Global Broadcast Service (GBS) satellite terminals. PathFinder's BAT-GBS-85 terminal, a Ka/Ku band, airline-checkable, flyaway system, will be delivered under this contract.

The BAT-GBS-85 has undergone and passed Army Strategic Command (ARSTRAT) Wideband Global Satcom (WGS) testing and is certified for use on the WGS network. Additionally, the terminal has met the standards of the Military Standard (MIL-STD) 810G environmental tests, ensuring its reliability in extreme conditions including cold, heat, humidity, salt, dust, wind, vibration, and shock.

The GBS program is a critical broadcast system designed to deliver data and video products for mission support and information transfer in operational theaters. PathFinder Digital's BAT-GBS-85 is capable of operating anywhere on the GBS network.

"PathFinder's BAT-GBS-85 terminal is small, efficient, economical, and user friendly. We are extremely pleased to be fielding these terminals with the United States Air Force for operation on the GBS network," says Roger McGarrahan, CEO of PathFinder Digital LLC.
