Antaris Wins Second SDA Contract for TrueTwin Digital FlatSats
68 FOMOAntaris announced a new contract with the Space Development Agency to expand digital FlatSat development for SDA space vehicles using TrueTwin technology. Building on an initial 2024 SDA contract, the expanded program supports Antaris' Full Mission Virtualization push — enabling operators to test satellite software in a virtual environment before deployment, eliminating the need for costly physical hardware FlatSats.
Why it matters
Back-to-back SDA contracts confirm Antaris is becoming defense infrastructure for satellite software testing. The DoD is essentially funding Antaris' platform development — ideal non-dilutive growth pathway.
