Oh, I'm not trying to indicate that this is anything but coincidence....

Which of these three sizes will the Atlas V accommodate for this mission? 4S, 4M, or 4L? Also, I kept looking at both Gunter's Space Page and Salo's US Launch Schedule and cannot decide whether the configuration is a 421 or a 401.
Apparently there are 13 small payloads sharing this launch. Does anyone know their names?
2015October 8 - NROL-55 (Intruder 11A, Intruder 11B), GRACE: LMRSTSat, ARC 1, BisonSat, Fox 1A, SNaP-3 ALICE/EDDIE/JIMI, AeroCube 5C, AeroCube 7A (OCSD A), PropCube 1, PropCube 3, SINOD-D 1, SINOD-D 3 - Atlas V 401 (AV-058) - Vandenberg SLC-3E[Last change on August 20th]
