Finland says it will acquire synthetic aperture radar satellites from Iceye, continuing the steady drumbeat of European countries buying into that capability.
Finnish satellite-maker Iceye says it will invest more than $287 million to scale up its SAR spacecraft production capacity and speed technology developments.
Portugal has agreed to buy an SAR satellite from Iceye, becoming the latest European state to invest in building up its military Earth-observation capability.
Iceye is expanding its international partnerships through a deal with IHI Corporation that would lead to synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite production in Japan.
