Falcon 9 Block 5 | Inmarsat-7 F1 (GX-7)
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2026
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Inmarsat-7 is the seventh generation of satellites for the London-based global mobile satellite communications operator Inmarsat. The three satellites of the series - GX-7, 8 & 9 - will have an improved fully reconfigurable Ka-band payload for Inmarsat's Global Xpress services. They are optimized for real-time mobility and feature thousands of dynamically-formed beams that direct capacity with laser-like precision over high-demand areas, to provide HTS (High Throughput) broadband connectivity for the mobility market. The satellites will be based on Airbus’ new standard and fully reconfigurable satellite product line OneSat. Fully reconfigurable and featuring on board processing and active antennas, the three Ka-band spacecraft will be able to adjust their coverage, capacity and frequency.
Geostationary Transfer OrbitFalcon 9 Block 5 | VICTUS SURGO
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2026
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
A new Tactically Responsive Space (TacRS) mission by the United States Space Force Space Systems Command to deliver responsive space delivery. The mission consists of an Impulse Space Mira orbital transfer vehicle that will operate in Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit (GTO), which would be transferred from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) on an Impulse Space Helios kick stage. A Helios rideshare payload will also be delivered to GEO.
Low Earth Orbit
Falcon 9 Block 5 | BlueBird Block 2 #3
SpaceX | United States of AmericaCape Canaveral SFS, FL, USA
TBD December, 2026
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
AST SpaceMobile’s Block 2 BlueBird satellites are designed to deliver up to 10 times the bandwidth capacity of the BlueBird Block 1 satellites, required to achieve 24/7 continuous cellular broadband service coverage in the United States, with beams designed to support a capacity of up to 40 MHz, enabling peak data transmission speeds up to 120 Mbps, supporting voice, full data and video applications. The Block 2 BlueBirds, featuring as large as 2400 square foot communications arrays, will be the largest satellites ever commercially deployed in Low Earth orbit once launched. This launch will feature 4 satellites.
