On February 19, 2026, MDA Space launched 49North, a new Ottawa-based subsidiary focused on Canada’s terrestrial and multi-domain defense market.
The company will deliver secure command and control systems, advanced radar and sensing technologies, and digital mission systems for uncrewed platforms, targeting Canada’s $180 billion defense procurement pipeline.
Led by veteran executive Joe Armstrong, 49North aims to strengthen Canada’s sovereign defense industry, support domestic contracts, and align with Five Eyes and NATO standards.
The move expands MDA’s role beyond space into broader defense contracting, emphasizing long-term sustainment, AI-driven data fusion, and interoperability.
