OSMOS X selected by the European Defence Fund

Big news: OSMOS X has been selected by the European Defence Fund.

🌍 As coordinator of project TAC (Tactical-Capture), we are leading a consortium of 7 partners across 5 European countries to develop a groundbreaking solution for in-orbit mobility and capture.

The challenge: intercepting and securing a spacecraft in orbit, even when it has no standard docking interface.

The answer: a servicer vehicle integrating plasma HPCR® propulsion and a welding-based capture technology, no docking port required, no cooperation from the target needed.

This is made possible by the combined expertise of our consortium:

→ ArcSpace — welding capture technology
→ LPGP / CNRS — in-situ diagnostics & process control
→ Politecnico di Milano & Politechnika Poznańska — algorithms & contact dynamics
→ KINETIK Space — robotic arm integration
→ Vimotek — sensor technologies and orbital simulation

Project TAC is a 30-month program that brings Europe one step closer to tactically responsive, sovereign orbital mobility.

🇺🇸 And as this news breaks, our CEO Arnaud Masson is at the Space Symposium (Space Foundation) in Colorado Springs, representing OSMOS X on the international stage. Meet us!

The timing feels right.
