WASHINGTON, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Lyntris, a defense technology company delivering integrated sensing, communications, and mission systems, today announced it has been selected by Intelsat General Communications, LLC, a SES Space & Defense company, to serve as prime payload integrator in support of the U.S. Space Force’s Protected Tactical Satellite Communications–Global (PTS-G) program.

PTS-G is a U.S. Space Force program to build a constellation of small satellites in geostationary orbit.  Using the Protected Tactical Waveform (PTW), this fleet will give warfighters a communications link that is more resilient.  The constellation will augment legacy tactical SATCOM satellites with a distributed and proliferated network that can absorb the loss of any single spacecraft. Space Systems Command has structured the effort as a multiple-award IDIQ contract with a ceiling of $4 billion.

As prime payload integrator, Lyntris will provide the RF payload architecture, precision pointing systems, and antenna technologies that form the foundation of the PTS-G’s protected communications capability. Intelsat General Communications, LLC. serves as the prime contractor for the effort.

Lyntris brings more than 30 years of experience delivering complex antenna and RF systems for military missions across all orbits. Its proven GEO heritage — earned where performance and resilience requirements are at their most demanding — substantially reduces technical risk, and Lyntris‘ integrated design-build-test capability allows it to meet the accelerated development timelines demanded by this crucial program. The company’s payload integration and test facilities also reduce supply chain risk, consolidating work that might otherwise span multiple vendors under one roof. Combined, these factors are why Intelsat General Communications, LLC. selected Lyntris as prime payload integrator for a program that demands speed and commercial readiness without compromising performance.

“Being selected as the payload integrator for PTS-G is validation of the mission critical RF and resilient pointing capability our team has built over decades — and the proprietary IP that lets us move from design to flight at the speed this mission demands,” said Brian Morrison, CEO at Lyntris. “This is exactly the kind of mission-critical work Lyntris was built to deliver, and I couldn’t be more proud of the team.”

“PTS-G demands performance with zero margin for error in GEO, and that’s exactly where our team excels,” said Richie Dart, General Manager of C5ISR at Lyntris. “This award reflects years of engineering discipline behind every multiband and resilient RF system we’ve fielded, and we’re ready to deliver that same rigor for the Space Force.”

“PTS-G represents the next generation of protected tactical satellite communications, and our team is committed to delivering the advanced payload technologies this mission demands,” said David Broadbent, President and CEO of SES Space & Defense. “Lyntris’s resilient payload architecture design, combined with their integrated antenna and motion systems are central to our ability to compete for this role, and this award builds on our long history of delivering secure, resilient space capabilities to the U.S. government.”

Lyntris will integrate and test the full PTS-G Payload at their integration facility in Longmont, Colorado. The PTS-G program is managed by Space Systems Command (SSC) at Los Angeles Air Force Base, California, with initial operational capability targeted for fiscal year 2029.
