A division within Northrop Grumman has in recent years become the world leader in extending the life of valuable satellites that are already in orbit.
Northrop Grumman's latest version of this tech represents a more flexible approach: A larger model, called MRV , will carry three MEPs , that it plans to deliver and connect with three satellites in 2026. Like before, the targets are big, expensive satellites operating in the distant geosynchronous orbit.
Froeliger explained that the new approach represents a shift in business strategy for Intelsat from "renting" the MEVs for a certain number of years to owning. While Intelsat has "study contracts with three or four other companies" for future satellite servicing missions, Froeliger noted that Northrop Grumman is the most "advanced" in this space sub-sector.
