Arsat exports satellite services for US$ 10.5 million per year

One of the main clients is the United States government, said the head of the Argentine satellite company, Pablo Tognetti, at the third meeting of the National Satellite Board, which was held at the Arsat earth station in the Buenos Aires town of Benavidez. .

The official pointed out as very important that the North American country "has detected the high capacity of the Arsat 2 satellite." The export of services is one of the axes of the Argentine Geostationary Satellite Plan. Others are the exploration of orbital positions; the revival of satellite activity, and the development and incorporation of the productive sector in coordination with the Ministry of Productive Development of the Nation.
