Spectra Defense Technologies has entered into a partnership with AeroGear Telemetry, establishing representation for all Spectra Defense products across a 29-state region from Texas to the Eastern Seaboard. This collaboration furthers our goal to meet the evolving demands of our defense customer base through enhanced regional presence and support.
“This partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to meeting the evolving demands of our defense customer base,” said Cory Grosklags, Chief Commercial Officer at Spectra Defense Technologies. “AeroGear’s established relationships and technical expertise across these critical regions will enhance our ability to deliver mission-ready solutions where and when our customers need them.”
Joel Weber, President at AeroGear Telemetry, added, “Representing Spectra’s proven C5ISR capabilities alongside our telemetry solutions creates significant value for our customers. The combination allows us to support complete mission systems with the local presence and responsiveness that defense programs require.”
Deep Market Experience
AeroGear brings over two decades of experience in defense and aerospace markets. Since 2002, the company has built relationships across critical mission areas including flight test, missile systems, ISR and emerging technologies. Their sustained growth — reaching $68 million in sales by 2024 — demonstrates the kind of long-term customer partnerships that align with our approach to mission success.
The company maintains established relationships with major defense contractors including Lockheed Martin, Boeing and Northrop Grumman, as well as government facilities across NASA centers and Air Force installations. Their customer base extends to next-generation companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin, providing coverage across both traditional and emerging defense/aerospace sectors.
Complementary mission-critical capabilities
This partnership brings together Spectra’s ruggedized C5ISR solutions with AeroGear’s telemetry and test capabilities. Our product portfolio — including Galleon’s embedded computing systems, Argon’s custom display and computing products and Calculex’s field-programmable recording platforms — complements AeroGear’s offerings in telemetry transmitters, receivers and ground systems.
The combination provides defense programs with access to battle-tested technology solutions through deep expertise delivering mission-critical products and support.
Strategic regional coverage
AeroGear’s coverage spans four key defense corridors:
- Central Region: Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Louisiana, Arkansas
- Southeast: Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky
- East Coast: Virginia through Northeastern states
- Southeast Coastal: Florida and Georgia
This geographic distribution ensures responsive local support while maintaining the technical depth that aerospace and defense programs require. Each region includes major defense hubs and government facilities where mission-ready technology solutions are essential.
Strengthened customer support
The partnership enhances Spectra’s ability to support existing relationships while building new ones across these regions. AeroGear’s technical sales expertise and established presence provide customers with improved responsiveness and local engagement alongside ongoing program support.
For defense organizations requiring ruggedized systems that address both legacy specifications and future capabilities, this expanded regional presence with AeroGear reinforces our shoulder-to-shoulder approach to customer collaboration. The partnership positions both companies to better serve the demanding requirements of military and aerospace applications where reliability and performance are non-negotiable.
