Australian GEO satellite operator Optus (Singtel Optus) has selected Arianespace to launch its next satellite in 2023. The spacecraft known as Optus 11 is planned as a HTS replacement for the older Optus D1 satellite which is already 15 years old. Arianespace is expected to utilise its yet-to-launch Ariane 6 launch vehicle.
The satellite construction contract was awarded to European manufacturer Airbus DS in July 2020.
