OHB SE CEO Marco Fuchs said the company will pursue legal action if EU regulators approve a satellite merger between three rivals. The deal, involving AIRBUS SE, THALES SA, and LEONARDO SPA, aims to counter competition from SpaceX and China. A legal challenge could delay the creation of a stronger European satellite manufacturer valued at billions of euros.
