Launch Services

Description

Rather than “owning a pad,” a realistic path is purchasing launch services (rideshare, hosted payload) to place inspection or relay assets where they confer RF, optical, or proximity advantage. Launch providers deliver integration, testing, and scheduling; an actor can use benign mission covers to field small satellites that measure local spectrum, perform on-orbit characterization of target emissions, or support later rendezvous and proximity operations. The resource being developed is access to vantage points, not just spaceflight hardware.
