Sale, export and operation of each platform remain subject to applicable export-control authorizations and regulatory approvals.

The six platforms address a range of operational requirements, including intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), tactical resupply, heavy-lift logistics, specialist mission support, aerial precision support and counter-unmanned aerial system (counter-UAS) operations.
The platforms incorporate electro-optical and thermal sensing, AI-assisted navigation and tracking, long-range communications and mission-specific payload configurations.

Auto stock Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:STLA ) lit up Canadian social media today on news that crushed the auto industry yet again with more job losses. Stellantis and Roshel, a Canadian-based defense technology company, today announce an Asset Purchase Agreement under which Roshel will acquire the Brampton Assembly Plant and associated equipment from Stellantis for an undisclosed amount.
The companies are also establishing a strategic cooperation framework to explore future global collaboration opportunities across vehicle technologies and related services in the defence industry.
The stock closed down at 4.2600 -0.1600 (-3.62%)
In May 2022, the Liberal government committed $529 million (matched by $513 million from Ontario) to support a $3.6 billion project to retool Stellantis's existing vehicle assembly plants in Windsor and Brampton for EV production.
The real life impact of the sale is over two thousand auto workers lost their jobs. Standing outside of the plant in Brampton, Opposition Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre demanded that Stellantis repay "every penny" of federal subsidies and support after the automaker announced the sale of its Brampton assembly plant. He also demanded Prime Minister Mark Carney fire Industry Minister Melanie Joly for her failure.

Electric orbit raising has also begun for the first two satellites, and as the orbital planes move into alignment for the remaining six satellites, Globalstar and MDA Space conduct in-orbit testing of the payload and bus functionality.
Orbit raising for all satellites of the first set will continue with the support of Rocket Lab Corporation (Nasdaq: RKLB), which designed, built and commissioned the satellite platforms, to reach the last testing altitude before they are maneuvered to their final orbit. The final stages of integration were recently completed at MDA Space in Montreal, Quebec, for the remaining batch of nine satellites on order. Both sets, totaling 17 satellites, will replenish Globalstar's HIBLEO constellation, which supports direct-to-device satellite-enabled services on select mobile phones and IoT applications.
