Summary
The HAWK-5A satellite, also known as Hawk 5A, was launched on May 25, 2022, from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station's Launch Complex 40 using a Falcon 9 launch vehicle. Built by UTIAS and owned by HE360, this spacecraft is equipped with a Defiant bus configuration designed for RF spectrum monitoring, SIGINT (Signals Intelligence), and traffic monitoring missions. The satellite measures 0.5 meters in length, has a diameter of 0.4 meters, and spans 1 meter. It weighs approximately 31 kilograms at launch and carries solar cells and batteries as its power source. Its dry mass is about 30 kilograms, and it employs FEES (Field Effect Electric Propulsion System) or water thrusters for maneuvering. The operational lifetime of HAWK-5A is estimated to be three years.
