Onboard Systems
and Platform
We develop onboard computing systems, satellite platforms, and end-to-end radar systems — from architecture to flight qualification.
Platform
A-100
L5 is developing the unified A-100 spacecraft platform — the only Russian platform in the up to 110 kg class. It supports payloads for Earth observation, radar imaging, IoT, 5G NTN, scientific experiments, and technology demonstrations.
For customers, the platform provides an opportunity to place their own payload in orbit. The platform ensures compliance with mass and dimensional requirements, power supply and access to the onboard computer’s computing resources, telemetry, and orbit monitoring and correction.
The development of A-100 is part of a long-term program to create our own radar spacecraft.
In-House Onboard
Computer
An onboard digital computer for spacecraft control, payload data processing, and next-generation communications. The first in Russia to provide complete 5G signal processing directly in orbit. It operates in open space without a pressurized instrument compartment.
Functions:
- Spacecraft control in command and autonomous modes
- Collection and transmission of service telemetry to Earth
- Control of payload and service equipment
- Digital processing of payload signals
Core Platform:
Flying Laboratory
A 32 kg platform scheduled to enter a Sun-synchronous orbit in 2027 as part of a multipurpose spacecraft.
Alongside service systems, the spacecraft carries payload elements, including experimental equipment from partner research and commercial organizations. The Core Platform also creates the potential to deploy the first demonstration onboard data center based on the onboard computer currently under development.
