Viasat acquired Inmarsat last year and has partnerships with Loft Orbital and Rocket Lab to provide LEO satellites for relay demonstrations with its geostationary fleet in Ka- and L-band.
Orbit Communications Systems Ltd. demonstrated the Orbit AirTRx30 business aviation terminal over Viasat’s Global Xpress satellites.
The AirTRx30 supports dual polarization capability for Viasat’s GX satellites.
Viasat operates a global L-band satellite network that will power connectivity for the Go.BIC service.
Viasat completed its acquisition of Inmarsat in May 2023.
The partnership with Viasat will expand Azercosmos’ available connectivity offering so it can provide more services alongside connectivity from its existing satellite fleet.
Viasat, Inc. is working with Azercosmos to bring L-band satellite services to Azerbaijan.
Viasat’s geostationary broadband satellites used for the NexusWave maritime service operate in Ka-band frequencies.
Viasat’s shares closed at $15.74 on 2024-05-22, down more than 16% after the company’s earnings announcement.
Viasat posted record revenue of $4,300,000,000 for the year to the end of March, a 68% increase from $2,600,000,000 a year earlier following its acquisition of Inmarsat.

Viasat recorded a $1,100,000,000 net loss primarily due to $905,000,000 of net write-down charges tied to the failures of ViaSat-3 F1 and Inmarsat-6 F2 and the canceled ViaSat-4 program.
ViaSat-3 F2 and ViaSat-3 F3 remain on track to launch in time for service starts in the second half of 2025 across the Americas and Asia Pacific, respectively.
Viasat has received 55% of ViaSat-3 F1’s $421,000,000 insured value and 100% of its $348,000,000 insurance claim for Inmarsat-6 F2.
ViaSat-3 F1 is the first of three one-terabit-per-second spacecraft to be provided by Boeing and is on track to begin commercial service in mid-2024 with less than 10% of its capacity following an antenna deployment failure.
Viasat has no plans to deploy its own LEO constellation and is focused on creating an ecosystem of partnerships.
ViaSat-2 F1 is currently located over the Americas and is planned to be moved to cover Europe, the Middle East, and Africa following the launch of ViaSat-3 F2.
Inmarsat Maritime will manage the NexusWave network integrating Viasat’s Ka- and L-band satellites with OneWeb’s low-latency Ku-band services.
The GEOStar-3 spacecraft hosting EPS-R will also carry an X-band payload for the Norwegian military and a Ka-band payload for Viasat.
Viasat’s Real-Time Space Relay service will leverage Viasat’s high-throughput geostationary orbit network and its growing ground station network to deliver persistent coverage around the globe.
