Communications Today, May 30, 2002
Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI), in cooperation with other Israeli hightech partners, launched its OFEQ-5 satellite aboard an Israeli SHAVIT launch vehicle on Tuesday.
With its insertion into orbit, OFEQ-5 will undergo a series of in-orbit tests, expected to last several weeks, to verify its operation and performance. The satellite carries a remote sensing payload that will enable it to perform its high-resolution observation missions for national intelligence-gathering needs.
The OFEQ-5 design is based on proven technologies and on the latest leading-edge technologies, company officials said. OFEQ-5 is a three-axes stabilized, lightweight satellite platform that can be adapted for highresolution observation, scientific, or, technological payloads.
