Redwire today announced the launch of its Seeker product line, a family of navigation sensors and space cameras designed to meet customer demand ranging from a single spacecraft to constellation-scale missions. The Seeker product line, manufactured at Redwire’s high-volume production facility in Riga, Latvia, is intended to strengthen Europe’s satellite supply chain sovereignty and meet the growing demand across the European space sector.
The next generation of European space missions will be defined by scale, and modern satellites are expected to do more than ever before. From Earth observation constellations and communications networks to lunar infrastructure and deep-space exploration, spacecraft operators need precise, reliable components that are readily available in the quantities required to support rapidly expanding mission architectures.
Building on 50 years of manufacturing experience and flight heritage, the Seeker products include a 5MP space-rated camera, a high-accuracy star tracker, and quad sun sensor engineered to support constellation-scale production for Low Earth Orbit (LEO), Geostationary Orbit (GEO), and Lunar missions.
