Gilat Expands and Adds to its ESA Antenna Portfolio with a
Successful Test Flight of ESR-2030Ku on Eutelsat OneWeb
Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Network
This New ESA terminal complements Stellar Blu Sidewinder solutions,
positioning Gilat to serve both business and defense aviation markets
with a comprehensive multi-orbit offering
Petah Tikva, Israel, May 12, 2025 — Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ: GILT, TASE: GILT), a worldwide leader in satellite networking technology,
solutions and services, announced today the successful completion of a series of test flights featuring its ESR-2030Ku electronically steered antenna (ESA). Conducted in collaboration with Gogo, which will be the exclusive distributor of the
antenna for the business aviation and defense markets, the tests demonstrated outstanding performance of the ESA on the OneWeb Low Earth Orbit (LEO) network.
The ESR-2030Ku—designed for mobility and engineered for efficiency—delivered full-duplex connectivity with throughput of 195 Mbps downlink and 32 Mbps uplink. The terminal remained stable and
reliable throughout the tests, even in demanding performance scenarios.
“We are extremely pleased with the results of these flight tests,” said Hagay Katz, Chief Product and Marketing Officer at Gilat. “With the superior
performance of the ESR-2030Ku, we are expanding our portfolio of market-leading electronically steered antennas, which now includes both the ESR-2030Ku and the Stellar Blu Sidewinder. This achievement positions Gilat to capitalize on the
fast-growing, multi-billion-dollar market for LEO-based ESA solutions in the Defense and In-Flight Connectivity sectors.”
The ESR-2030Ku is a unique compact and low-power full-duplex aero ESA built for the OneWeb network. Production hardware delivery to support customer STCs is expected later in 2025.
