Rheinmetall and OHB are in preliminary talks to collaborate on a bid for a multibillion-euro contract to establish a secure satellite communications network for the German army, aiming to create a military broadband service akin to Starlink. This initiative aligns with Germany's €35 billion military space technology budget and focuses on enhancing capabilities along NATO's eastern flank. Both companies are looking to expand their military contracts amid a projected increase in space spending in Germany.
