Göktürk-3 is a Sun Synchronous Sattellite at an orbit of 500km from earth. That means it always covers a sun illuminated area on earth, whilst sitting on a near polar position. Hence giving high resolution pictures of the surface of earth at day and night.
Do we know the SAR resolution values and the coverage of this satellite in terms of how far south and the area of coverage at any given time?
Originally, it was planned to be launched by 2019. Then it was postponed to 2021. Now new expected launch date is some time in 2025.
Do we know why it is delayed? It is supposed to give us unprecedented intelligence data. So the quicker it is launched the better.
I'm more concerned if the US would launch such a strategic asset for us.
