SPACE
High-altitude persistence as an extension of the multi-domain sensing & communications architecture.
ECADSOL uses the Space domain page to address high-altitude and near-space system concepts that complement air and digital capabilities. This is not presented as a claim of established orbital-space capability. The current portfolio focus is IRIS, a high-altitude pseudo-satellite concept.

IN DEVELOPMENT
IRIS
High-altitude pseudo-satellite
IRIS is intended as a persistent high-altitude node for sensing,
communications relay and wide-area mission support. Its value is
considered at system level, including payload, energy, station keeping,
communications, command, airspace integration, support and data
exploitation. Performance figures will only be published after technical
validation and release approval. The concept also considers dual-use
applications and potential navigation-backup functions where
technically validated and legally appropriate.
Integrated by Design
High-Altitude System Priorities
- Persistence and energy balance
- Payload and communications architecture
- Command, health monitoring and autonomy
- Airspace and regulatory integration
- Ground segment and data services
- Weather, environmental and recovery considerations
