Lockheed Martin Completes Work on U.S. Navy's Second MUOS Satellite

摘要

Lockheed Martin has successfully completed required system testing on the second satellite in the U.S. Navy's Mobile User Objective System (MUOS), designated MUOS-2. The satellite has been placed in storage to await its scheduled launch date in July 2013. The MUOS constellation will provide significantly improved and secure communications for mobile warfighters, including simultaneous voice, video and data services - similar to the capabilities experienced today with smartphones.
