Feb 16 (Reuters) - Latecoere LAEP.PA :
* Strengthening its activity in the space industry thanks to
three major cooperation projects with Airbus.
* Latécoère designs, industrializes, produces and integrates
electrical harnesses for three emblematic European space
programs: the Eurostar Neo satellites, for both the Service
Modules (SM) (especially the all-electric version) and the
Communication Modules (CM); the second generation of European
Galileo satellites, which will enable Europe to continue to
offer its own satellite navigation system; and the OneSat
telecommunication satellites, which will bring major innovations
and disruptive technologies.
* Specialized in electrical harnesses, Latécoère's
Interconnection Systems branch concentrates most of its space
activities on the Vendargues site (Hérault), a
6,000-square-meter regional and European center of excellence,
with one of the largest clean rooms in Europe for a Tier 1
subcontractor. From design to production, Latécoère has already
contributed to some 100 space programs in Europe and around the
world.
* The various programs will be delivered from 2022 to 2026,
and include several dozen satellites, mostly OneSat.
