ALL.SPACE and Aalyria enter strategic partnership

ALL.SPACE has formed a strategic partnership with Aalyria to advance autonomous, fully interoperable communications across multiple domains, specifically designed for defence scenarios where connectivity must survive beyond legacy single link satcom solutions.

Modern defence operations increasingly hinge on rapid sensor to effector connectivity in contested domains: tracking hypersonic or ballistic threats, coordinating fires, sharing intelligence across multi domain assets. In these use cases, adversarial capabilities in electronic warfare (EW), anti satellite (ASAT) actions, jamming and cyber attacks threaten the communication backbone. This requirement aligns directly with the Pentagon’s vision for JADC2 (Joint All-Domain Command and Control) and programmes like NGC2 (Next Generation Command & Control).

This partnership directly addresses those challenges. By combining multiple simultaneous orbits and bands, it eliminates single points of failure: if one SATCOM network is denied, Hydra’s multilink capability and Spacetime’s adaptive orchestration ensure automatic failover and continuous connectivity. Spacetime’s predictive modeling of platform motion, link quality and terrain or atmospheric effects enables persistent, optimised connections even as platforms move or networks degrade.

The combined system supports the dynamic connectivity between sensors (e.g. ground radars, airborne ISR, space based trackers), command nodes, weapon systems and user terminals, ensuring resilient, low latency data flows in the face of hostile interference, so networks stay on, sensors stay connected to effectors and mission command retains situational awareness even when the enemy tries to break these links.

John-Paul Szczepanik, Chief Technology Officer, ALL.SPACE, said: “Orchestration partnerships are essential to the future of defense communications. With Aalyria, we are able to deliver an autonomous SATCOM mesh that thinks, adapts and optimises in real time. Together, we are building the interoperable architecture to support the Pentagon’s needs – one network, every orbit, zero compromise.”

Dr Brian Barritt, Aalyria’s Chief Technology Officer for software said: “Our collaboration with ALL.SPACE exemplifies what the Hybrid Space Architecture is meant to achieve – a truly autonomous, software-defined network spanning every orbit and transport layer. This partnership accelerates secure, resilient communications frameworks capable of withstanding contested environments and delivering the assured connectivity today’s missions demand.”

Together, ALL.SPACE and Aalyria will demonstrate cross-network interoperability and dynamic link orchestration across all orbits and terrestrial infrastructure – laying the groundwork for rapid adoption by US and allied defence programmes.
