SSC Space

Positioning

SSC Space (the state-owned Swedish Space Corporation, founded 1972, renaming in 2026) runs PrioraNet, one of the world's largest civilian multi-mission ground networks (thousands of contacts a month from 60+ spacecraft), rolling out SSC Go compact antennas and new optical stations, and supported Firefly's Blue Ghost and ISRO's Chandrayaan-3. It is the state-backed heavyweight of the independent ground layer, modernized via a Kratos OpenSpace virtualization deployment powering its new SSC Space Go LEO data service (March 2026). Revenue is estimated at 100-500m class.
