These satellites will utilize <a href=\"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/?s=SpaceX%27s+\" title=\"SpaceX's \">SpaceX&#8217;s <\/a>reliable Falcon 9 rockets for their missions scheduled in 2027 and 2028.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The agreement forms a crucial part of Yahsat&#8217;s satellite procurement program valued at AED 3.9 billion (USD 1.1 billion), covering spacecraft, ground infrastructure, launch services, and insurance. This initiative follows Yahsat&#8217;s earlier contract with Airbus to develop AY4 and AY5 on the Eurostar Neo platform, as part of a larger AED 18.7 billion (USD 5.1 billion) mandate from the UAE Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ali Al Hashemi, Yahsat&#8217;s Group CEO, expressed pride in collaborating with SpaceX, highlighting the strategic importance of these launches in bolstering Yahsat&#8217;s capabilities to serve governmental communications needs across the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and Asia. AY4 and AY5 will replace older satellites and ensure enhanced coverage and service reliability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This milestone underscores Yahsat&#8217;s commitment to advancing satellite technology and meeting the evolving demands of its government and commercial customers.v<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yahsat, the satellite solutions provider in the UAE, has announced [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":84266,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9619],"tags":[1531],"contributor":[9732],"class_list":["post-84262","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-top-stories","tag-space","contributor-news-desk"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Yahsat-Satellites-03-e1719833571774.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Aleema@techxmedia.com","author_link":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/author\/aleematechxmedia-com\/"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84262","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/49"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=84262"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84262\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/84266"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=84262"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=84262"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=84262"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=84262"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
