TKMS and Isar Aerospace entering Canada’s space industry?

TKMS and Isar Aerospace entering Canada’s space industry?

This story is exceptionally light on details but it’s saying that TKMS and Isar are proposing a large investment in Canada, which is linked to TKMS’s bid for the huge Canadian Patrol Submarine Project:

The project was announced by the companies in Kiel, Munich and Halifax on 19 May 2026. It is focused on developing secure launch infrastructure for Canada while supporting integration with the country’s national space ecosystem.

The cooperation is linked to TKMS’s bid for the Canadian Patrol Submarine Project. TKMS said the initiative would support its broader ambition to develop capabilities across multi-domain operations, from seabed to space.”

They don’t say specifically what their plans include but it does mention that it will located in Nova Scotia. Perhaps they’re going to develop their own launch site. I guess we’d all prefer if they decided to partner with an established site though.
