# NATO Selects SecureARX Satellite Modems

NATO selected CTech’s SecureARX electronic-protection satellite modem under a contract signed in September 2024 for integration into NATO satellite ground systems as fixed and transportable stations. Interoperability verification was reported during NATO’s CWIX exercise in Poland in June 2026. The contract value and technical performance parameters have not been disclosed, and no open solicitation is identified. CTech’s Turkish Armed Forces supply history and its 2026 Malaysia supply-cooperation agreement provide additional market references, but do not indicate a current NATO bidding opportunity.

- Procurement teams can treat the CWIX verification as evidence of interoperability activity, while noting that detailed test results and performance specifications are not public.
- Contractors assessing the satellite communications market may use the NATO selection and CTech’s military supply history as competitive context; the available information does not identify an open procurement or a route to bid.
- Organizations evaluating comparable systems should distinguish the confirmed NATO integration scope—fixed and transportable ground stations—from technical capabilities or contract terms that have not been disclosed.
