NAVSTAR 74 (USA 262), also known as GPS 2F-10 will take the place of GPS 2R-11 satellite, launched in 2004 as the 50th GPS craft. The Lockheed Martin-built satellite has outlived its 7.5-year design life and will shift to a backup role within the constellation for its remaining years. The new bird will assume Plane C, Slot 3 of the network. To make way for the new addition to the constellation, the GPS 2A-26 launched aboard Delta 237 in July 1996 will be decommissioned following today's GPS 2F-10 launch.
