Tough SDR Technology enables sovereign radios for Spain

January 20, 2026 – At the end of December, Bittium signed an agreement with Spanish Indra Group for licensing of Bittium Tough SDR technology to Indra, and received the first purchase order valued at 50 million euros under the agreement. On January 16th, Indra issued a second purchase order valued at 20 million euros for technology and production transfer projects.

By licensing Bittium’s Tough SDR technology, Indra will develop and manufacture sovereign, high-performance handheld, vehicular, and manpack radios, with a primary focus on Spain and potential expansion to other countries.

“This agreement demonstrates strong confidence in the excellence of our software-defined radio technology. The new business model, in which we license our technology, enables countries that require sovereign modern tactical radios to use our technology. This expands significantly the global reach of our technology and products to countries with strond defense industry champions. We are excited to collaborate with Indra, and together we will make a significant contribution to strengthening the defense capabilities”, said Petri Toljamo, CEO of Bittium Corporation.
