How can we help?
Resilient PNT that augments GPS for aviation
Trusted global navigation, built for pilots
Skyband M100 strengthens navigation confidence when GPS is jammed, spoofed, or unavailable.
GPS is under attack, creating global aviation risk
GPS spoofing and jamming are increasing in their severity and intensity in key locations around the world, creating the real risk of loss of life while also increasing day-to-day crew workload.

Skyband M100 is a resilient PNT (position, navigation, and timing) hardware system designed to validate GPS integrity, augment GPS, and strengthen navigation confidence in GPS-contested environments.
It combines LEO-powered navigation, onboard inertial sensing, real-time threat detection, and pilot-centered alerting into a resilient PNT hardware layer built to work with existing aircraft systems.
GPS stays primary.
M100 adds a reinforcing PNT layer.
What M100 enables
Verify GPS
Compares aircraft GPS against an independent LEO-powered PNT layer to help determine when GPS data is unreliable.
Detect jamming and spoofing
Identifies GPS failure modes including both large-scale jamming and harder-to-detect spoofing events.
Support crew awareness
Provides timely alerts, situational awareness, and advisory guidance when navigation confidence is affected.
Work with existing aircraft systems
Integrates with existing avionics systems and antennas, reducing retrofit complexity and limiting aircraft downtime.

Defense-in-depth for navigation
Skyband does not replace GPS. It augments GPS with a dissimilar, reinforcing PNT layer that helps aircraft verify GPS and respond to failure modes.
Threat awareness
Better jamming and spoofing awareness
Skyband addresses both large-scale GPS jamming and hard-to-detect spoofing, giving crews clearer awareness when GPS confidence changes.
Existing aircraft systems
Simple install with existing aircraft investments
Skyband leverages existing avionics systems and antennas, reducing retrofit complexity and limiting aircraft downtime.
Operational value
Lower downtime, higher operational value
Skyband M100 is engineered to reduce operational disruption through single LRU installation, minimal crew training, and no-downtime OTA software updates.
How GPS+ works
Skyband M100 augments GPS with a reinforcing navigation layer.
GPS remains primary
During normal conditions, aircraft continue using GPS as the primary navigation source.
M100 adds independent verification
LEO-powered PNT and onboard inertial sensing provide an independent layer for checking position, navigation, and timing.
Threat detection runs in real time
M100 monitors for GPS jamming, spoofing, degraded signal conditions, and misleading navigation data.
Pilots receive clear alerts
Crew-facing alerts and advisory guidance help pilots maintain situational awareness during abnormal navigation events.
Pilot experience/EFB
Support crew awareness and decision-making
Skyband M100 brings real-time alerts, situational awareness, and advisory guidance into a pilot-friendly EFB and flight deck experience.
Designed for GPS-denied or GPS-contested operations, the system helps pilots reduce uncertainty during abnormal navigation conditions while supporting crew judgment.
Real-time GPS denial alerts
Immediate alerts when GPS spoofing or jamming is detected.
Situational awareness
PNT data displayed through a pilot-friendly EFB experience.
Advisory guidance
Crew-facing information designed to support pilot judgment without replacing pilot authority.
Proven aviation experience
Proven experience. Built for aviation deployment.
With more than 30 years of combined SpaceX experience, Skyband’s team designed, built, integrated, and scaled Starlink Aviation from the first customer install to 2,000+ aircraft, delivering inflight connectivity to 20M+ passengers in 3 years.
Skyband is built by a team with deep aviation technology experience.
