Falcon 9 Block 5 | SICRAL 3B
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD November, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
SICRAL 3A and 3B are next generation communication satellites for the Italian Ministry of Defence, providing UHF and SHF communications services in replacement of SICRAL 2 and adding Ka-band capacities. One of the satellites will provide UHF and SHF band communications, while the other carries a Ka-band payload. These 2 geostationary satellites will provide confidential strategic and tactical communications, to support defense missions both in Italy and abroad, as well as supporting security, public rescue and civil protection services. The new SICRAL 3 system is designed to meet Italian defense communications and interoperability requirements.

Avio S.p.A | ItalyGuiana Space Centre, French Guiana
TBD November, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Sentinel CO2M-A carries a near-infrared and shortwave-infrared spectrometer to measure atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by human activity, providing the EU with a unique and independent source of information, to assess the effectiveness of policy measures, and to track their impact towards decarbonizing Europe and meeting national emission reduction targets.

Soyuz 2.1b/Fregat-M | Luna 26
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaVostochny Cosmodrome, Siberia, Russian Federation
TBD December, 2027
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Luna 26 (also named Luna-Resurs) is a planned lunar polar orbiter, part of the Luna-Glob program, by the Russian space agency Roscosmos. In addition to its scientific role, the Luna 26 orbiter would also function as a telecommunication relay between Earth and Russian landed assets. The scientific payload on board the orbiter is composed of fourteen instruments that will be fabricated by Russia. The payload will study the lunar surface and the environment around the Moon, including the solar wind, and high-energy cosmic rays. Luna 26 will also scout sites for the planned Luna 27 landing mission. Luna 26 is the second mission of Russia's new lunar program, which includes the launch of Luna 27, a heavy lander that will study the composition of the lunar soil by collecting several samples. Luna 28, a lunar samples return mission, will be the first to return samples at lunar temperature, and will serve as a demonstration for a future Martian samples return mission. Finally, Luna 29 should land a heavy lunar rover on the surface.
