Voyager Appoints Joseph “Gus” Guastella as National Security Executive Vice President

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Voyager Technologies (NYSE: VOYG) today announced the appointment of retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Gen. Joseph “Gus” Guastella as executive vice president of National Security, effective April 7. In this new role, Guastella will support Starlab and Voyager with their NASA civil Commercial LEO Development (CLD) program and key national security stakeholders, opening doors to new opportunities and positioning the organizations for future space station programs.

“Bridging Starlab, NASA and U.S. government national security users requires someone who understands how priorities are set at the highest levels of government and defense – and Gus is that person," said Matt Kuta, president, Voyager. "He has built and defended the Air Force budget, led 28-nation coalitions in combat and spearheaded the integration of space capabilities into the warfighting domain – an extraordinarily rare combination. His experience will be critical to our ability to support the strategy between NASA and U.S. government national security users.”

Guastella retired from the U.S. Air Force as a lieutenant general following a distinguished 35-year career spanning warfighting command, defense budgeting and space modernization. He led a 28-nation coalition in air, space, and cyberspace campaigns across the Middle East, including Operation Inherent Resolve and Resolution Support in Afghanistan, while training and equipping 660,000 total force airmen. As director of operations for Air Force Space Command, the precursor to Space Force, Guastella led the integration of space capabilities into the warfighting domain and orchestrated the first concept of operations for space warfighting intelligence processes. Following his military service, he was vice president and regional executive for Europe and the Middle East at Northrop Grumman, where he focused on modernizing air, space and joint capabilities for allies and partners in alignment with U.S. policy.

"Advancing national security by securing America’s presence in low Earth orbit is a critical piece to ensuring the Department of War maintains the space-based capabilities the nation depends on,” said Guastella. “What Voyager is doing matters to national security, and Starlab represents a generational opportunity to shape how America maintains leadership in space.”

A combat-proven commander, Pentagon budget architect and space warfighting pioneer, Guastella brings unmatched credibility to the intersection of civil space and national security.
