MDA Ltd. (TSX: MDA), a leading provider of advanced technology and services to the rapidly expanding global space industry, has been selected by Airbus OneWeb Satellites, LLC (AOS) to design and build Ka-Band steerable antennas. The MDA antennas will be integrated into the portfolio of Arrow commercial small satellites manufactured by AOS.

"We are pleased to be selected by Airbus OneWeb Satellites to support important applications for space and communications constellations," said Mike Greenley, CEO of MDA. "This contract represents another opportunity to demonstrate MDA's best-in-class satellite design and manufacturing capabilities."

MDA technology has been integrated into more than 350 satellite missions to date, with more than 2,000 antenna subsystems and 3,000 electronic subsystems on approximately 850 satellites currently in orbit. The antennas for AOS will be built, assembled and tested at MDA's state-of-the-art high volume satellite production facility in Montreal.

Airbus OneWeb Satellites LLC is a joint venture between Airbus and OneWeb. AOS manufactures satellites for the OneWeb commercial constellation and Airbus customers in Merritt Island, Florida. AOS is producing satellites for Airbus U.S. Space and Defense, Inc., in support of U.S. government programs.

The AOS contract was added to MDA's backlog in the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
