Japan’s Synspective booked 20 Electron launches for its StriX radar satellites, launching every year from 2028 to 2031, bringing its total to 47 missions, more than any other Rocket Lab customer. The company’s backlog now tops 100 launches. Our take: radar satellites that see through clouds and darkness are becoming a constellation business, and dedicated small rockets are winning the rides.
