LUXUAV is proud to announce a strategic collaboration with OQ Technology, a global pioneer in 5G Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) and Direct-to-Device (D2D) satellite connectivity, to explore next-generation applications for UAVs, defense systems, and High-Altitude Platform Systems (HAPS).This partnership establishes a collaborative framework focused on integrating Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite connectivity into advanced aerial platforms, enabling resilient and secure communications for mission-critical and tactical operations.
Through this collaboration, LUXUAV and OQ Technology will work together on:- Advancing 5G NTN satellite connectivity for UAV and HAPS platforms- Joint technology development and operational validation- Customer field demonstrations and testing- Exploring governmental, defense, and sovereignty-focused applications
Nicolas Zharov, CEO of LUXUAV, commented:“Partnering with OQ Technology adds a critical space-based connectivity layer to our airborne communication infrastructure, helping ensure resilient and sovereign communications across aerial and remote operations. This collaboration between two Luxembourg-based companies demonstrates the strength of our national ecosystem in delivering advanced aerospace and connectivity solutions for Europe.”
Omar Qaise 🛰, Founder and CEO of OQ Technology, commented:“OQ Technology continues to push the boundaries of 5G NTN and D2D innovation by enabling connectivity where it is needed most. Our collaboration with LUXUAV represents an important step toward integrating satellite connectivity into next-generation UAV and aerial systems, unlocking new capabilities for mission-critical operations. With our LEO satellite constellation and S- and C-band spectrum coverage, we are well suited to connect unmanned machines on air, land, and sea. »
This collaboration highlights Luxembourg’s growing leadership in aerospace innovation, autonomous systems, and secure communications technologies, supporting Europe’s vision for resilient and sovereign connectivity infrastructure.
