Exploring New Frontiers: the Ymir-1 Satellite & the Future of Radar

The drive to understand and protect our world is a constant force, pushing us to develop new technologies that expand our horizons. This drive has led to innovations like the Ymir-1 satellite and the Giraffe 1X radar.

Launched in November 2023, the Swedish-built Ymir-1 is gathering vital data from space, paving the way for safer and more efficient maritime communication. Meanwhile, the Giraffe 1X, a compact 3D radar, provides a real-time, 360-degree view of the airspace, ensuring that we can respond to any airborne threat with speed and precision.

These groundbreaking technologies are about defense and security; they’re about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and exploring new frontiers – they’re about keeping people and societies safe.
