York Space Systems announced the LX/V-Class satellite platform on 2026-04-12, designed for sustained missions at lower altitudes than its previous spacecraft. [^1]

NAVSYS Corporation and ALL.SPACE demonstrated a combined system that kept a vehicle connected and precisely located during a fully GPS-jammed test at the Department of War's Arcane Thunder exercise. [^2]

The LX/V-Class spacecraft is based on the company's S- and LX-Class satellites with structural modifications to reduce orbital drag and maintain altitude for 3+ year missions. [^3]

York Space Systems CEO Dirk Wallinger stated that the LX/V-Class will carry approximately 300 kg of payload mass at altitudes as low as 200 km. [^4]

York Space Systems plans to build and launch LX/V-Class satellites in six to seven months from signing a contract, according to CEO Dirk Wallinger. [^5]

ALL.SPACE's satellite communications terminal, called Hydra, kept the vehicle connected while it was moving, without any drop in performance during the test. [^6]

John-Paul Szczepanik, Chief Technology Officer of ALL.SPACE, stated that their joint approach showed how Signals of Opportunity can be collected, processed, and exploited without affecting connectivity. [^7]

NAVSYS plans to expand the backup positioning service into Europe to cover regions already affected by regular GPS jamming. [^8]
