AST SpaceMobile, publicly owned and headquartered in the United States, was founded in 2017 with approximately 290 employees, and reported $70.9M in revenue as of 2025. The company specializes in enterprise connectivity services. AST SpaceMobile operates as a US satellite designer and manufacturer, with its BlueWalker 3 satellite functioning as a commercial communications array in low Earth orbit.
AST SpaceMobile's BlueBirds 12 and 13 fully deployed their 2400-square-foot communications arrays on August 28. These next-generation satellites target speeds near 200 Mbps and support AI and radar applications, with production slated to extend through BlueBird 48, aiming for 45 satellites in orbit by early 2027. This follows the August 26 announcement that New Zealand operator 2degrees opened a satellite ground station in Marton and completed tests of voice, video, and data services using standard smartphones over AST SpaceMobile's satellite network. 2degrees noted that the Marton site is one of the first commercial AST SpaceMobile ground stations globally, designed to support the planned rollout of direct-to-device satellite connectivity in New Zealand.
