Poland is ready to launch its first military satellite, a SAR, from California

The plans to launch Poland’s first military satellite, a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite built by the Polish-Finnish consortium ICEYE, will be from Vandenberg AFB in California on November 22. The launch was originally planned for November 11, which coincidentally is Veterans day here in the states. This is all part of Poland’s plan to secure an Earth observation system for the country’s armed forces and will have its first three military satellites launched this month aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket as part of the Transporter-15 mission.
