BlackSky Technology Inc. recently completed a critical design review (CDR) with a major international defense customer, successfully confirming that the company’s next-generation architecture, powered by its Gen-3 constellation, will deliver industry-leading secure, AI-derived real-time intelligence within minutes.
CEO Brian O’Toole stated that completing the CDR is a monumental achievement validating BlackSky's space-based tactical ISR services meet the customer’s long-term mission needs. BlackSky’s Spectra® tasking and analytics data-fusion platform architecture is being optimized in parallel to the Gen-3 constellation development.
This milestone confirms that BlackSky’s image quality, time-diverse revisit, order and delivery timelines, and precision AI-enabled analytics standards are technically aligned with the customer’s real-time space-based intelligence mission requirements. The first Gen-3 satellite launched on February 18 and delivered first light images five days afterward, with AI-enabled analytics delivered three weeks post-launch.
