Notable offerings will include the Troposcatter Family of Systems (FoS) which provides highly mobile, high bandwidth strategic communication links between key headquarters, the award-winning SlingShot system that converts standard UHF and VHF tactical radios into strategic satellite communications with true Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) and Communications on the Move (COTM) capabilities and the new GENSS software defined radio that combines all the advantages of SlingShot with the need for increased battlefield data capacity and agility into a single system.

Simon Davies, CEO of Spectra Group said: “As our portfolio of products and services continues to grow, providing closer support to our global customers has become the next logical step. We’ve recently expanded our footprint in the US, and we’re seeing increasing demand in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region. Our goal is to ensure our customers receive the highest levels of support.

Their expertise is invaluable and we believe it will be crucial to the success of Spectra Group (Australia). The new office is being established primarily to serve the Australian market with our high-quality products and services. Additionally, the Australian team will support opportunities in the region and strengthen our wider group as needed.”
