The Kleos satellites on PSLV-C49 were originally intended to launch on a Rocket Lab Electron mission in late 2018.
The Kleos Scouting Mission satellites will launch into a 37-degree inclination.
The Kleos Scouting Mission (KSM) will deliver commercially available data and serve as a technology demonstration and keystone for a later global high-capacity constellation.
The Kleos full constellation is intended to deliver near-real-time global observation while the Scouting Mission will deliver targeted daily services.
Kleos Space plans to begin deployment of its Kleos satellite constellation in the middle of 2021 on a SpaceX Falcon 9 launch with Spaceflight onboard.
Kleos raised money to launch its first four satellites through an initial public offering on the Australian Stock Exchange.
Danish company GomSpace is building the Kleos Scouting Mission nanosatellites under a 2.42-million-euro contract announced in July 2018.
The Kleos Scouting Mission will launch on Rocket Lab’s Electron rocket in mid-2019 from Rocket Lab’s Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand.
The initial Kleos Scouting Mission will provide targeted daily services, while the full 20-satellite constellation will provide near-real-time global monitoring.
