Payload: SIRIUS 4, A2100 AX platform
Separated mass: 4,385 kg (9,667 lbs)
Launch Vehicle: Proton M/Breeze M
Weight at liftoff: 691,272 kg (1.5 million lbs) including payload
Height: 56.2 m (184 ft)
Launch Time:
04:39 Nov. 18 Baikonur;
23:39 Nov. 17 CET;
22:39 Nov. 17 GMT;
17:39; Nov. 17 EST
Launch Site: Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan Launch Pad 39
End User: SES SIRIUS, Solna, Sweden
Satellite Manufacturer: Lockheed Martin Commercial Space Systems,Newtown, PA
Launch Vehicle Manufacturer: Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center, Moscow
Launch Services Provider: International Launch Services, McLean, Va.
Satellite Use: Multi-mission satellite that will provide a wide range of telecommunications services, providing coverage over Europe, Africa and the Baltic/Nordic region.
Satellite Statistics:
52 active Ku-band transponders
2 active Ka-band transponders
Anticipated service life of 15 years
Mission Profile: The Proton launch vehicle will use a 4-burn Breeze M mission design to inject the satellite into a geosynchronous transfer orbit. The first three stages of the Proton will use a standard ascent trajectory to place the Breeze M fourth stage, with the satellite, into a suborbital trajectory, from which the Breeze M will place itself and the spacecraft into a circular parking orbit of 173 km (107.5 miles) inclined at 51.5 degrees. Once the upper stage and SIRIUS 4 are in the parking orbit, the unit will then be propelled into its transfer orbit by a series of additional burns of the Breeze M. Following separation from the Breeze M, the spacecraft will perform a series of liquid apogee burns to raise perigee, lower inclination, and circularize the orbit at the geostationary altitude of 35,786 km (22,236 miles).
Target Orbit at Separation: Apogee: 35,786 km (22,236 miles); Perigee: 7,030 km (4,368 miles); Inclination: 17.3 degrees
Spacecraft Separation: Approximately 9 hours, 13 minutes after liftoff
Coverage will be carried on Sirius 2 5E 12265H 27500 3/4. The test card is already running on the tp :
