Vehicle, instrument and operating interfaces brought into one programme.
A defined customer assignment
Twenty46 provides vehicle, instrument integration and operating support to Foundation46’s Avenra expedition. The work sits within a wider portfolio of government, institutional and commercial programmes.
Crew and equipment interfaces
The assignment brings a three-person crew configuration of Kestrel 3 together with science payloads, remote-deployment equipment and Relay field stations. Autonomous integration systems verify access, electrical compatibility, operating procedures and configuration records. Robotic cells assemble the accepted vehicle and instrument package.
Separate responsibilities
Foundation46 determines the scientific objectives and remains responsible for its research findings. Twenty46’s responsibility is the contracted equipment, integration evidence and operating support.
Acceptance and support
Programme readiness work connects subsystem evidence to the delivered configuration. Support planning covers robotic inspection, module replacement and the responsibilities of the mission authority and autonomous service systems.
