SpaceX is targeting 2023-12-24 at 12:56 UTC for a Falcon 9 launch of the SARah-2 and -3 satellites from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. These are synthetic aperture radar reconnaissance satellites launched for the German Bundeswehr. They will operate in a circular 500 km orbit at 88.2° inclination. The first stage booster, B1075, will be making its eighth flight after a turnaround of 56 days and will land near the launch site at Vandenberg.
