Final Analysis Wins LockMart Deal
Washington, DC Feb. 19, 1998 - Final Analysis, Inc. (FAI) of Lanham, Maryland has signed a Memorandum Of Understanding with Lockheed Martin's Management and Data Systems Unit for the development of FAI's store-and-forward Little LEO satellite system, the company has disclosed. The MoU gives LockMart the rights as sole-source provider of network engineering and integration services on the project. The first task of the new partnership will be for LockMart to refine the plan for the satellite system now under design. Final Analysis has proposed the development of a 32-satellite low Earth orbit constellation, backed up by six on-orbit spare vehicles. The constellation will provide ground users digital data communications services, via UHF/VHF radio frequencies. Thus far, FAI has launched two prototype research satellites, all aboard Russian boosters. The deal gives FAI a major player in the industry as partner, with the ability to attract major new investments in the constellation plan. It also gives LockMart another opening in the commercial space utilization business.
