SpainSat NG-III integrates advanced X-band active antennas offering the capacity of 16 traditional antennas, with coverage reconfiguration up to 1,000 times per second and high-precision electromagnetic interference mitigation. The satellite incorporates enhanced resilience elements capable of withstanding high-altitude nuclear events and electromagnetic pulses, meeting the strictest NATO standards in electromagnetic intelligence, anti-jamming and anti-spoofing.

Worldwide Geographic Coverage in Coordination with SpainSat NG-I

The operational coverage of SpainSat NG-III extends from North and South America through Europe, Africa and the Middle East. Combined with SpainSat NG-I, launched in 2025, the constellation covers two-thirds of the Earth's surface, strengthening Spanish and European strategic autonomy for critical mission command communications in defence and governmental operations.
