About
SWIRSAT is LC60’s Short-Wave Infrared satellite line, designed and assembled at the company’s clean-room satellite assembly facility in Perth, Western Australia. It pierces smoke, dust, and haze to detect material signatures invisible to standard optical and thermal sensors, serving as a confirmation and discrimination layer for defense, intelligence, and dual-use customers. The program is building toward an 18-satellite tactical revisit constellation by 2029 and an eventual 100+ satellite global coverage goal by 2035.
