The Boeing 702 design is directly responsive to what customers said they wanted in a communications satellite, beginning with lower cost and including the high reliability for which the company is renowned. EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Sept. 29, 2017 – Boeing [NYSE: BA] has successfully supported seven out of seven satellite launches this year, including today’s launch of a 702 high-throughput digital payload satellite, built for Intelsat.. Intelsat 37e sent and received its first signals from space shortly after it launched today on board an Arianespace Ariane 5 rocket. The satellite was the first 702 model to use extra solar panels instead of the solar concentrators which ran into fogging problems on the earlier 702 flights. Boeing has been the premier manufacturer of commercial jetliners for decades. Advanced manufacturing processes dramatically reduce cost and schedule risk while allowing the 702X to be delivered to customers within three years. EL SEGUNDO, Calif., March 16, 2010 – Boeing [NYSE: BA] announced today that it will begin marketing the Boeing 702 satellite under two names: the Boeing 702HP for the high-power version, and the Boeing 702MP for the medium-power version. For maximum customer value and producibility at minimum total cost, the Boeing 702 offers a broad spectrum of modularity. "In 2009, we announced a medium-power variation of the very successful Boeing 702 high-power satellite – a variation that was the result of more than … In particular, SMC is utilizing Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) as part of concerted efforts to put WGS-11+ on an “aggressive schedule”. The Boeing 702 design is directly responsive to what customers said they wanted in a communications satellite, beginning with lower cost and including the high reliability for which the company is renowned. The 702X series consists of the small GEO and legacy Boeing 702 Small Power and Medium Power platforms “married” to Boeing’s latest digital payload technology. B oeing Satellite Systems built our ViaSat-2 satellite, which launched in 2017, and the company is also working with us on our upcoming ViaSat-3 global satellite constellation. Just last December, Boeing reported that WGS-11 and 12 will benefit from “a new variant” of its BSS-702 bus (known as the “702X”), with greater bandwidth and signal strength. The satellite's R-4D apogee engine was to put the Boeing BSS-702 satellite in geostationary orbit. New product development efforts include the Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner, the 737 MAX, and the 777X. The 702X platform incorporates a mature design, with a medium Earth orbit version already in production. With the announcement of the third ViaSat-3 satellite to be built on the Boeing 702 satellite platform, we caught up with Boeing's Chris Johnson. Galaxy IIIC, the seventh in the Boeing 702 series, will be the first Boeing 702 to carry Boeing's latest in solar array technology. The June 15 launch of Galaxy IIIC, a Boeing-built 702 satellite, will mark the return-to-flight of the world's highest capacity and most powerful communications satellite.
