Maxar Technologies (NYSE:MAXR) has unveiled a rebranded portfolio of spacecraft platforms which the company said reflect its broad manufacturing capabilities and ability to serve commercial, civil and national security space missions.
The news sent the company's share price higher, up 2.9% at US$52.70 on Monday morning.
The space solutions provider said its flexible platforms, which include the Maxar 300 series, Maxar 500 series and Maxar 1300 series buses, are designed to serve a range of missions from proliferated low Earth orbit constellations to multi-orbit systems.
"Customers can come to us with a wide array of critical missions, and our spacecraft family offers the right platforms to fit their needs," said Maxar senior vice president and general manager Chris Johnson in a statement.
"These products are rooted in Maxar’s deep legacy of manufacturing flexible, reliable spacecraft, and our investments ensure they are relevant now and well into the future."
