Secure comprehensive solutions from concept to completion

Unbiased advice to ensure the most effective solution for your mission and aircraft type.

Government aircraft fleets are often tasked with a large range of missions, each with their unique requirements. Be it VVIP transport, Border Control, Search and Rescue (SAR), Medevac, Civil Security, firefighting or any of a number of activities, onboard airborne connectivity enhances mission readiness and achievement.

While almost all government missions require secure communications, VVIP transport, especially Head of State (HoS) assignments have unique requirements not found on other flights. Eclipse Global Connectivity offers a complete solution including hardware, software applications, aircraft surveys, system selection, architecting and integration, and system certification – through Eclipse Technics, satellite airtime, provisioning and project management.

Government aircraft typically serve multiple missions, all of which have different phone and internet access requirements. SAR, Civil Defence and other operators from around the world rely on Eclipse Global Connectivity for their high-performance broadband, airborne communications solutions. Our Aero+ Software Suite, offers distinct advantages to government operators, including:

• A guaranteed Internet connection for user devices
