Founded in 1976, Telestar is an small minority owned 8(a) certified business based in Southern California. We focus on providing hardware and software to the Government market at very competitive pricing. At Telestar, we are proud of our 35-year perfect track record with never a contract default.

We are proud of our broad range of products, services and extensive contract portfolio.

Telestar Corporation provides end-to-end technology support service as an innovative solutions provider. In just the past twenty-five years, over 300 prime federal government contracts have been completed. Here’s a short history of some of the federal government customers we’ve worked with:

In the last ten years, Telestar Corporation has been listed in the prestigious Jane’s Weapons Book: Jane’s Radar and Electronic Warfare System Edition under our patented product, the visionary Direction-Finding (DF) System. The system covered one of the largest broad wide range frequencies known to man (from 18-110GHz, 0.1-18Ghz). A scope once declared "impossible" by U.S. Government officials considering the size of the corporation. Today, Telestar is proud to continue the tradition of making the "impossible, possible."
