Mission Microwave Announces Award/Design-Win for Integrated Tactical Transceivers

Mission Microwave is supplying integrated transceivers for a major defense contractor’s premier X-, Ku-, and Ka-band Man-Portable VSAT terminals

Cypress, CA – August 31, 2021 – Mission Microwave Technologies, LLC, a manufacturer of highly efficient Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs) and Block Up Converters (BUCs) has received a multi-million dollar order from a US DoD contractor to provide updated versions of the contractor’s highly integrated transceivers for their signature Man-Portable VSAT terminal.  This design win replaces incumbent providers and brings Mission’s efficient and reliable GaN power amplifiers integrated with receiver components to create products that are form, fit, and function replacements for older version technologies.

Initial orders for the transceiver products covering all three band total over $2.4 million. The customer’s product line is well regarded and is widely deployed in both domestic and international tactical SATCOM terminal markets. Additional long-term demand for the products is expected based on the customer’s recent contract wins.

Mission was able to support this long-standing customer with a customized design, improved performance, and support an aggressive schedule,” said Steve Richeson, Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Mission Microwave.
