If we don't consider the two SUCHAI 3 subsatellites, we only have 39 payloads.If we consider the two SUCHAI 3 subsatellites, then we have 41 payloads You're assuming the missing payload is a satellite. It could be a hosted payload. You're also assuming we have a real count for the number of payloads. T-3 taught us that the numbers in the press release may not be accurate. We don't really know how they counted the stuff on ION. I'm not even bothering to try making the numbers match with the amount of information we have right now. I don't even know who integrated all of the ports.

TLEs now available for some of the Transporter-4 objects. I was expecting 31 objects and that's what we have, but Iwas also expecting only 3 in the 650 km orbit and 28 in the 500 km orbit - but we have 9 at 650 km and 22 in the 500 km orbit, so that's a puzzle.
Looks like the 650 km TLEs for six sats were an error that has now been corrected to expected 500 km.
