Reflect Orbital purchases two dedicated Skyroot launches
64 FOMOReflect Orbital purchased two dedicated launches from Indian launch provider Skyroot Aerospace. The agreement covers one mission using the Vikram-1 vehicle and another using the in-development Vikram-1U. The company said the purchases secure launch capacity and schedule flexibility for its future spacecraft deployment program. The agreement also expands Skyroot's commercial launch manifest beyond domestic Indian customers.
Why it matters
Securing dedicated launch capacity reduces Reflect Orbital's exposure to the increasingly constrained rideshare market. The choice of an Indian launch provider also creates an international launch partnership, although mission timing and financial commitments remain undisclosed.
The numbers
Reflect Orbital today announces the purchase of two Skyroot Aerospace launches to deploy future spacecraft.
