SpaceX to Launch 21 Data Transport Satellites for U.S. Space Force Agency

SpaceX is preparing to launch 21 data transport satellites for the U.S. Space Force's Space Development Agency (SDA) as part of the Tranche 1 Transport Layer A (T1TL-A) mission. This launch, scheduled for early Monday morning, marks the fourth mission sending production satellites into orbit for the SDA.
