Danbury space, defense company ARKA makes Michigan acquisition

By Harriet Jones

Danbury-based ARKA Group, a defense and space manufacturing company, has acquired a radar and sensor technology group from Maxar Technologies.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

ARKA said the Michigan-based group will operate as part of its advanced communications and mission applications business unit. The unit provides radio frequency and software-based products for data transport, advanced information processing and mission management.

The group has experience supporting U.S. government-led synthetic aperture radar (SAR) programs.

“With our existing space hardware and leading software capabilities, this acquisition will allow ARKA to provide more powerful and flexible solutions to our customers' ever evolving and demanding mission needs," said ARKA CEO Andreas Nonnenmacher in a statement.

Earlier this year, ARKA completed an $85 million expansion of its Danbury headquarters complex.
