The new satellites are designed to support a new generation communications system. Just like the initial seven O3b mPOWER satellites procured, these additional four satellites will be launched into space on board Falcon 9 rockets from Cape Canaveral.
A total of four Falcon 9 rockets will be used to support the deployment of all O3b mPOWER satellites.
The O3b mPOWER systems deliver high-performing communication systems for clients in over 50 countries.
SES and SpaceX revolutionised the sector in 2013, when they launched the first commercial geostationary (GEO) satellite into orbit.
