Do we not know that this flight will be core 1063.2?

I think that’s speculation based on a Vandenburg launch. However, I believe it can now be done from the Eastern Range, maybe even as part of a flight share.
There isn’t a lot of public information available, and the launch date seems to be fluid.

I certainly don't know that. I haven't seen a schedule update on this in a long time.

Any idea when we can expect to hear a hard date for "NET H1 - SARah-1, XVI, Sherpa-NG, Vigoride [NuX-1, SPARTAN, PocketPod (x2), Quadpack, SMPOD-03] - Falcon 9 - Vandenberg SLC-4E"?
I have seen May but no specific date. Would love to make plans to go and watch the launch...or try.
[zubenelgenubi: I moved your post from the US Launch Schedule thread to the SARah-1 launch thread. Both threads are the best places to check for news about this flight.
There's little concrete information on WHEN in 2021 that this will fly. There's even a chance of it launching from Cape Canaveral, Florida, instead of Vandenberg--polar and/or sun-synchronous launches are now (again) possible from the Cape.]

I have been regularly monitoring the media here in Germay for any hint on the launch date, but found nothing since that Handelsblatt article mentioned above in post #44 (which hinted to 2022).
Momentus probably had manifested their Vigoride-2 mission on this launch; it was scheduled for February 2021 on a Falcon 9 polar launch. Vigoride-2 now has been moved to Transporter-2, which will probably launch in July. This could indicate that Sarah 1 will launch significantly later than July 2021. Otherwise it would have been easier for Momentus to keep VR-2 on the Sarah launch. (Except if Sarah will launch pretty soon, and Momentus does not expect to solve their licensing issues in the near term. On the other hand, those issues are - at least officially - tied to the VR-
1 payloads. Or except if they shifted VR-2 due do payload readiness.)
So there are these options now:
- NET May 2021 according to Michael Baylor, who usually is very well-informed on SpaceX launches
- NET ~ late summer 2021, as indicated by the Vigoride-2 switch to Transporter-2
- 2022 according to that poorly written Handelsblatt article
All three options are same likely imho.

I wouldn't be surprised if the March 2022 rideshare is this flight. (I don't have any information saying that is the case.) The NET May on Michael's site is very much NET, as in it's not launching before then but date is still unknown.

There's a brief mention of SARah in this
March 2021 German Bundestag report.
Ab 2022 wird SAR-Lupe durch das Nachfolgeprojekt SARah mit drei Aufklärungssatelliten ersetzt.
Translated:
From 2022, SAR-Lupe will be replaced by the follow-up project SARah with three reconnaissance satellites.

But CSG-2 is going to SSO, while IXPE is launching from 39A and I don't think SpaceX can do polar trajectories from KSC, only from SLC-40.

More importantly than that, IXPE is going to an equatorial orbit, with an about 0° inclination. There is just no way to perform that much of an inclination change. The IXPE/CSG-2 connection is pure coincidence

IXPE is going to a 0° equatorial orbit - so a launch with CSG-2 can be ruled out.

We can ask
PM3 klod but it may be that by “binded to IXPE” he meant “paced by IXPE”. (oops)
As in launching afterwards
As in NET 1 day after NET Nov 17
