The investigation has indicated that Intelsat-29e’s failure is unrelated to the propulsion issues with the Boeing-built Intelsat-33e launched in 2016.
Boeing built five of Intelsat’s Epic-series satellites and supplied the payload for one Epic satellite that used a chassis from Airbus Defense and Space.
Boeing received a $605,000,000 contract for production of the Air Force’s 11th Wideband Global SATCOM satellite, WGS-11.
Under a one-satellite option, Boeing would produce WGS-11 with twice the capacity of previous WGS satellites and provide launch services for the satellite.
The Air Force is negotiating with Boeing to deliver WGS-11 on-orbit, with Boeing responsible for launching the satellite and turning it over to the Air Force.
Boeing has delivered on-orbit satellites as part of commercial customer agreements but has not performed on-orbit delivery for the Department of Defense.
The WGS contract modification is to an existing WGS Block II follow-on agreement and brings Boeing’s total WGS contract value to nearly $2,500,000,000.
Boeing built payloads for all six of Intelsat’s Epic-class high-throughput satellites and built the chassis for five of them, while Airbus supplied the platform for Intelsat-32e.

Boeing has delayed the first uncrewed Starliner test flight, the Orbital Flight Test, from spring to August due to limited launch opportunities in April and May.
Boeing will use the additional time from the delay of the Orbital Flight Test to conduct more testing of the Starliner spacecraft.
SES has seven second-generation O3b satellites under construction with Boeing that are collectively designed to provide 10 terabits per second of capacity.
NASA announced that Boeing's CST-100 Starliner Crew Flight Test will have an extended duration when it flies, with a schedule no sooner than late this year.
NASA has been collaborating with Boeing to examine the feasibility of an extended Starliner test flight at the International Space Station (ISS) for over a year.
