GSLV MkIII - OneWeb cluster - SLP - January 2023
« Reply #1 on: 08/17/2022 07:22 am »
Developments thus far:

Updates on GSLV Mk3 for OneWeb from PSLV C53 post-launch press conference (at 16:02): OneWeb has booked two launches. First launch planned in September-October of 2022, and next launch by January 2023.

Quote from: Peter B deSelding
@Eutelsat_SA @OneWeb combination 2: 3 @SpaceX launches (equivalent to 4 Soyuz OneWeb launches) & 2 Indian GSLV missions will complete Gen 1 deployment between Sept and March. OneWeb chairman Sunil Bharti thanked US & Indian govts for their influence in securing these launches. [July 26]

Does anyone know how ISRO managed to get two extra GSLVs for OneWeb on such short notice? Were they able to manufacture them, or did some other launch(es) have to be delayed because of OneWeb?
Bump ISRO payloads off of them to later launches.
Likely GSLV MkIII M2 and M3?

GSLV Mk3 roadmap. <snip>
Yes.

Director, SDSC SHAR, press meet [15 Aug 2022]:

Missions planned for this year:
GSLV Mk3 M2 - OneWeb
PSLV C54 - Oceansat
SSLV D2
TV-D1 and TV-D2 CES for Gaganyaan
GSLV Mk2 F12

Missions planned for next year:
PSLV C55 - Commercial launch
PSLV C56 - Aditya-L1
GSLV Mk3 - OneWeb
GLSV Mk3 - Chandrayaan 3 (based on readiness)

Ruth Pritchard-Kelly, Senior Advisor for Regulatory & Space Policy, @OneWeb told us minutes ago that the Launch window for the #OneWeb next flight on @SpaceX #Falcon9 opens next week!

Also, she said that the following launch will also be ON FALCON 9 and not with ISRO. And the launch window for this second flight with @SpaceX opens in January.

So, the next two OneWeb Launches will be both with SpaceX on Falcon 9.

Next week launch window start is on Dec. 6. [Dec 1]

Re: LVM3 M3 - OneWeb F17 (x36) - SLP - NLT March 2023?

Cross-post; this launch hopefully still NLT March 2023?
[YouTube link]
Perhaps five Indian orbital launches before the end of the Indian fiscal year March 31, 2023:
Oceansat-3: end of November;
The 2nd OneWeb cluster launch: January or February, LVM3 M3;
The 2nd SSLV launch;
GSLV (MkII) NavIC satellite, apparently IRNSS-1J (1st of 5 2nd generation NavIC satellites ordered, which matches the circumstances of 1J);
Perhaps Aditya-L1.

Launch delayed. Next GSLV Mk2 launch (F12 or F14) should come before this one.

From the post launch speeches after the successful launch of SSLV D2:
Preparing GSLV Mk.III for 36 OneWeb satellites in middle of March. Commencing launch campaign immediately after today's launch for PSLV C55 for end of March on commercial mission. Using new facility. Preparing for landing demonstration of RLV in a few days time.

For Gaganyan have abort and recovery mission today, another abort and recovery mission and trying for uncrewed mission before end of year.

GSLV for NAVIC series satellite prior to NISAR, scheduled for end of this year. More PSLV missions as well.

Cape Canaveral OneWeb launch apparently will be before Sriharikota OneWeb launch; Ben Cooper's Launch Photography Viewing Guide, updated February 16:
Quote
The next SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch the Inmarsat 6 F2 satellite from pad 40 on February 17 at 10:59 p.m. EST. A Falcon 9 from pad 40 will launch a Starlink batch on February 23. A Falcon 9 from pad 39A will launch four astronauts to the ISS on Crew-6 on February 26 at 2:07 a.m. EST (Saturn V Center tickets on sale here). And a Falcon 9 from pad 40 will launch the next batch of OneWeb satellites for SES on early March.
