Indian Navy to Modernize Satellite Communications with BSNL and Viasat Partnership

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) and Viasat are set to modernize the Indian Navy's satellite communication systems starting this month. The upgrade will integrate Viasat's high-capacity Ka-band satellites with existing L-band infrastructure, enabling a multi-band, multi-constellation SATCOM strategy. This aims to enhance coverage, data throughput, and reliability for mission-critical naval operations. Both companies emphasize their commitment to supporting India's defense communication needs through this collaboration.
