Questions for your shortlist

What are your payload requirements?

Document mass, envelope, power budget, data interfaces and thermal requirements.

What mission services are included?

Confirm launch integration, hosted payload operations, commissioning, ground segment and mission support scope.

Which configuration is flight proven?

Ask for heritage of the specific configuration, qualification evidence, schedule and mission-specific limits.

These are buying questions, not independently tested findings. Confirm current specifications, availability and suitability directly with the supplier.
