Garvey's price point for launching nanosatellites sits between $500,000 and $1 million--relatively low given that the next nearest competitor is Space X, which charges nearly $7 million for the smallest rocket. Examples of European exports include British microsatellite and nanosatellite technology for anti-satellite weapon systems, British airborne early-warning radar for Y-8 aircraft, German engines for Song-class conventional submarines, and French and Italian technology for attack helicopters. One such proposal effort was completed during the first quarter of 2006 and resulted in the award of an Air Force Research Laboratory Space Vehicles Directorate contract to SpaceDev for the preliminary design of a sophisticated nanosatellite. |
