Mission Details
Al Yah 5
Al Yah 4 and 5 are two planned multi-band communication satellites by Al Yah Satellite Communications Company (Yahsat).
They will be built by Airbus Defence and Space using their Eurostar-Neo bus. The flexible multi-band payloads can be fully reconfigured while in orbit, capable of adjusting the coverage area, capacity and frequency “on the fly” to meet evolving mission scenarios.
Both satellites will offer secure governmental communications over a wide geographical area across the Middle East, Africa, Europe and Asia. The new advanced satellites will eventually replace Al Yah 1 and Al Yah 2.
