Skykraft Block 2 (original) (raw)

Skykraft Block 2 [Skykraft]

The Skykraft Block 2 for Skykrafts constellation providing global coverage and the reliability needed for air traffic management to provide continuous coverage for aircraft at all altitudes and locations. Skykraft�s space-based solution allows real-time communications between air traffic controllers and pilots.

The Block 2 satellites differ from the unflown Block 1 prototype by having a flat box shaped body instead of the cube shaped.

Four prototype satellites were launched in January 2023 using the Skykraft Deployer 1. The full constelation will consist of ~200 satellites.
