Written by InnaLabs® | Fri, 25 Jul, '25

Irish Space Navigation System manufacturer Innalabs® ARIETIS-NS space navigation system will play a key role in the upcoming launch of Airbus’ latest generation CO3D satellites, a high-profile collaboration between Airbus and the French Space Agency (CNES).

The launch is scheduled for 25th/26th July 2025 aboard an Arianespace Vega-C rocket.

The ARIETIS-NS system is a radiation-tolerant, high-precision inertial navigation solution, designed to deliver reliable performance in the harsh environment of space. Onboard the CO3D satellites, it will support critical attitude control and ensure mission stability throughout operations.

“Being part of this project marks a proud milestone for Innalabs and for Irish engineering in space,” said John O’Leary, CEO of Innalabs. “We are honoured to contribute to this cutting-edge programme that is setting new standards in satellite performance and innovation.”

Headquartered in Dublin, Innalabs designs and manufactures advanced navigation systems for the aerospace, defence, and industrial sectors. The ARIETIS-NS is part of Innalabs’ growing portfolio of technologies developed for high-performance and mission-critical environments.
