CTech signed a strategic agreement in the field of secure satellite communication solutions with its local partner AR Eastern at the Defence Services Asia 2026 exhibition held in Malaysia. Within the scope of the agreement, the supply of modem systems providing high protection against electronic warfare threats and the development of joint projects are planned.
Anti-Jamming Modems to Be Supplied to Malaysia
The “anti-jamming satellite communication modem family” developed by CTech, a subsidiary of Turkish Aerospace Industries (TUSAŞ), is at the center of the agreement.
The signed agreement does not only cover product supply; it also includes the development of secure satellite communication solutions, technical knowledge sharing, and joint engineering activities.
ASEAN Region in Focus
The parties position the cooperation as a strategic lever to expand into the Southeast Asian market. In particular, it is planned to develop joint solutions addressing the increasing need for defence and secure communication in the ASEAN region.
The combination of CTech’s expertise in communication technologies and AR Eastern’s system integration capabilities aims to create a competitive advantage in regional projects.
NATO Reference: Technology Certified Internationally
CTech’s competence in the field of secure communications was also validated internationally in 2024 when its SecureARX products were selected by NATO.
CTech General Manager Cüneyd Fırat stated that the agreement in Malaysia is a critical step in the company’s international growth strategy and made the following evaluation:
“We aim to respond to the growing regional demand for our secure and uninterrupted communication technologies through strong local partnerships. We believe that this agreement will strengthen our presence in the ASEAN region and pave the way for new collaborations.”
