Secure integrated multi-orbit network (SIMON ) delivered by SES Space & Defense will support rapid, uninterrupted data transmission
Reston, Va., 13 May 2025 - SES Space & Defense, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SES, joins the Defense Innovation Unit's (DIU) Hybrid Space Architecture Network initiative. SES's Hybrid Space Architecture II project will showcase an automatically orchestrated secure integrated multi-orbit network that interconnects commercial and government networks to deliver assured and affordable, low-latency, multi-path communications across a scalable and resilient multi-domain network.
SES Space & Defense will deliver an engineered multi-orbit network leveraging Secure Integrated Multi-Orbit Networking (SIMON ). This will enable always-on connectivity as an affordable, resilient alternative to traditional Primary, Alternate, Contingency, and Emergency (PACE) and auto-PACE operations currently used by warfighters across the Department of Defense (DoD) worldwide. By blending LEO, MEO, and GEO capabilities in a purposeful manner, SIMON ensures that the warfighters' data can affordably traverse multiple orbital regimes simultaneously, adapting and adjusting in real time to changing mission requirements.
With SIMON , warfighters will have the ability to set and forget' their user terminals and affordably realize assured connectivity across multiple orbits, says David Fields, President and CEO of SES Space & Defense. This transformational approach solves a decades-long dichotomy of affordability versus resilience, providing SATCOM agility, flexibility, and reliability for the forward deployed personnel.
