    Will Badr-8 be the replacement for Badr-4 ?

    It Looks like Badr-4 has already reach end of life in geostationary orbit in by 2021.

    Badr-8 is designed to replace and expand Arabsat’s C-band and Ku-band capacity across Europe, Middle East, Africa, and central Asia over its 15-year design life.

    The TLE is incorrect... it is about 27°E. from a very reliable source,

    It is likely that carrier tests will begin soon.

    Re: Arabsat 26°east satellite update

    Update:-
    BADR-8 will also include the innovative Airbus developed TELEO optical communications payload demonstrator. This payload will enable very high capacity analogue optical feeder link communications, as part of the development by Airbus of a new generation of optical communications technology in space to be integrated in its future commercial products, which is highly robust against jamming.

    Khalid Balkheyour, President/CEO of Arabsat said: “BADR-8 satellite will be joining our Badr-network at Arabsat 26° East hotspot. BADR-8 will carry massive satellite transponders for satellite TV broadcasting, satellite telecommunications and information exchanging services in Ku-band / C– band that will enhance Arabsat’s satellite fleet capacities and ensure updated and developed services for years to come,
    reinforcing Arabsat leading role in the Middle East for satellite TV broadcasting & satellite telecoms. Arabsat’s investment in BADR-8 will reach about $300 million including launch, insurance and ground infrastructures.”
