DS-SAR Satellite Launch

The DS-SAR satellite has been successfully launched – and entered Earth orbit in space! The radar satellite, developed and produced by IAI, has begun its space mission and transmitted the first data to the ground station. The satellite was successfully launched into space on a PSLV-C56 rocket, from the launch site SDSC SHAR Sriharikota, India. While in orbit, the satellite will begin a preplanned series of tests, and following their completion, will be formally handed over to its Singaporean customers DSTA and ST Electronics.
