Thanks to this contract, the Ukrainian military will have access to high-precision space images with full coverage of the combat zone.
The Minister of Defense signed a strategically important contract with ICEYE, a leader in the field of SAR satellites, Defense Minister Rustem Umerov reports.
“Thanks to this contract, our military will have access to high-precision space images with full coverage of the combat zone. The command will be able to independently determine priority observation zones and quickly receive up-to-date data via the ICEYE satellite system,” Umerov wrote.
He noted that this agreement was made possible thanks to the support of the German government and the Rheinmetall concern, which was a party to the contract.
SAR satellites (Synthetic Aperture Radar, radar with a synthetic aperture) are equipped with radars that use aperture synthesis technology to create highly accurate images of the earth's surface in all weather conditions and at any time of day.
