About this report
Chelton Limited (UK) is an established aerospace and defence engineering firm specializing in aircraft antennas, navigation and communication systems. Its core value lies in delivering rugged airborne and ground communications and Electronic Warfare (EW) products that support mission-critical military and civil aviation operations.

Its technologies – from anti-jam GPS systems to secure intercoms – contribute directly to NATO and allied interoperability, enabling robust communications and navigation resilience.
