Alverca Space Hub is developing a satellite manufacturing facility at the Portuguese Air Force base with an investment of €1.5 million, expected to be completed by mid-2026. The hub will focus on constructing eight SAR satellites, each weighing 230 kilograms, with plans to serve other European nations in the future.
The Portuguese Air Force announced this initiative alongside the launch of the CA-01 satellite by SpaceX, which is part of the upcoming 'Constelação do Atlântico.' The facility aims to fill a production gap in Europe while ensuring secure integration of satellite technology.
