Thuraya 4

Successful launch yesterday, and it was the first launch of 2025, catalog nr. 62483.
LEOP will take 5 months, the slot will be 44.0°E to replace the old very inclined (8.0°) Thuraya-2.
L band (1600MHz) is highly unlikely to be affected by inclined orbits of that magnitude, perhaps the new satellite has eavesdropping countermeasures.
