Wait for stronger evidence
- Why
- Strong sovereign mandate and funding, but it is a paper/contract-stage program with no on-orbit assets, active cost disputes, and service a half-decade out — nothing to integrate with now.
- Next
- Re-check after the SpaceRISE cost/schedule negotiation closes and the early-2028 critical design review; treat 2029 first-launch as the real maturity gate.
