Radeus Labs Extends 25-Year Partnership With General Atomics Aeronautical Through 2029 With New GCS Contracts

by | Sep 24, 2026 | News , Announcements

Radeus Labs has secured new multi-year contracts extending its engineering and sustainment support for General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) ground control station (GCS) programs through 2029.

The contracts continue a 25-year partnership between Radeus Labs and GA-ASI. During that time, Radeus Labs’ digital flight recorder and mission computing systems have been integrated into GA-ASI ground control stations supporting a range of unmanned aircraft platforms used by military and government customers in the United States and abroad.

What the New Contracts Cover

The new contracts continue Radeus Labs’ role supporting GA-ASI across both new-build ground control systems and the sustainment of platforms already fielded.

This is long-horizon, mission-critical work that supports the continued operation and sustainment of unmanned aircraft programs long after they enter service. Rather than representing a single award, the contracts extend an established engineering and sustainment relationship through 2029.

The work includes:

  • Continued engineering and sustainment support for GA-ASI GCS programs through 2029
  • Support for new-build ground control systems and already-fielded platforms
  • Support for a range of unmanned aircraft platforms used by U.S. and international military and government customers

Supporting GCS Programs

“As a small business, our value isn’t just the technology we build; it’s the speed and flexibility we bring to it,” said Juliet Correnti, CEO of Radeus Labs. “The commercial market moves faster than government acquisition can on its own. Our agility helps us respond to changing ground control system requirements with practical configurations and alternatives.”

Radeus Labs evaluates and incorporates commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components where appropriate, then configures and ruggedizes them to meet each program's specific mission, environmental, and lifecycle requirements.

The result is a purpose-built ground control station solution for demanding operating conditions. "Technology matters," said Correnti, "but transparency has sustained this partnership for 25 years. We tell General Atomics exactly where things stand and earn trust through that candor."

Supporting Applicable TAA Requirements

Radeus Labs can support applicable Trade Agreements Act (TAA) requirements through supply-chain practices designed to provide sourcing transparency and configuration flexibility for defense and government customers.

Talk to Our Team

The new contracts extend Radeus Labs' 25-year relationship with GA-ASI and continue its role supporting new-build ground control systems and platforms already in the field through 2029.

Voices Driving Innovation: Inside Kingston's Approach to the DRAM and NAND Allocation Crunch

For over a year, memory has been the tightest link in the supply chain for anyone building serious compute. DRAM and NAND prices have climbed beyond forecasts, and manufacturers are being more selective than ever about who gets product and when.

Jake Box has a front-row seat to the market. As Kingston Technology’s West Coast Field Sales Manager for system integrators, he works primarily with builders of AI servers, government systems, and gaming rigs. We spoke with him about what is driving the crunch, how Kingston manages allocation, and why this cycle differs from those before it.

Introducing the RL250: Remote Polarization Control for Satellite Antennas

A satellite move comes through, and the new one runs a different polarization than the last. In a lot of teleports, that still means what it's always meant: someone drives out, gets up on the antenna deck or the feed boom, throws the switch by hand, and drives back, hoping nothing else needs attention before the next pass. If the site is unattended, it means someone books a flight instead.

From Augusta to Salt Lake City: Computing & SATCOM Show Circuit Recap

clay moore_oliver burns_radeus labsOver the past few weeks, the Radeus Labs team has been on the road connecting with customers, partners, and new industry contacts. Computing and Recording Specialist Clay Moore attended AFCEA TechNet Augusta and MODSIM World in Alexandria, while Satcom Specialist Oliver Burns traveled west to SmallSat in Salt Lake City.

Clay’s stops highlighted the growing importance of military modernization and rugged tactical edge compute. At SmallSat, Oliver encountered a different but related conversation: how cloud-first approaches and AI may reshape commercial ground-segment operations.

Here's what stood out at each stop.
